Favor of the Gods

De: Ali Winters

Narrado por: Sarah Puckett

"Like Icarus, you flew too close to the sun. Someone had to bring you back down to reality. You don’t belong with princesses, heroes, or demigods."

Ever since Medusa unwittingly crossed her school’s resident mean girl, her life has been hell.

If only she could keep her distance from Perseus who has a knack for always being in the wrong place at the right time.

But rivalry goes too far when a curse that can destroy the village is cast.

Only the favor of the gods can reverse it, but the gods are vengeful and not always forgiving.

Loved it!

Short and sweet! I enjoyed listening. The author did an excellent job at keeping me enthralled with the story. And it really spoke volumes with the message of the story. Anti bullying is a message we need in more young adult books and Ali Winters did such a good job of including it in the story. And the new take on the Medusa story was fun to read. I can’t wait for another audio from this author!! Oh yeah, the narrator was good also.

short but good

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I liked this one. It was short, but well executed. There is just enough content to get you engaged and tell you a story. The author balances level of detail with story progression appropriate to the short length. The narration is very well done and really brought this short story to life.

cute read

cute modern telling of the greek mythology. it was a sweet read and very short, easy to knock out when you have a moment.

sweet quick listen

I loved this audio.
a great quick listen
You will see Medusa in a different light

Favor of the Gods

I really enjoyed this version of Medusa. It gives mean girls a new name and shows you that you just need that 1 person to believe in you so that way you can believe in yourself.
The narrator does a great job.

Short, Bully, and Clean

A retelling of Medusa's fate.

while there's some bullying from a jealous HS setting fellow student the love interest isn't so this is more of a YA version of the Greek story.

Favor of the Gods

Poor Medusa. This novella explains how Medusa became cursed and it is very interesting to listen to. I enjoyed it and will be looking further into this author to hopefully find more.
I received this book in exchange for an honest review.

Unique Twist On Greek Mythology!

Favor Of The Gods by Ali Winters is a great, short read. Well written and I love the unique twist on Greek mythology. Definitely has a Mean Girls vibe to it. I always picture Medusa as the villain but after reading her pain and torment in the story, I am rooting for her and hope she gets revenge!
My only complaint, that the story was so short... I want more!!!

new twist

I enjoyed listening to this new twist on the tale of medusa. If you are looking for a quick listen then this one is worth checking out.

Listened to it twice in one day!

A week in the life a young Medusa. Angst, jealousy, love and heartbreak in one short wonderful story.
