The Hymn to Dionysus

by Natasha Pulley

#TheHymntoDionysus #NetGalley

I know that Pulley has written some fascinating novels. This was the first of hers for me. It is a long and intriguing retelling of a story from ancient Greece.

In this book readers will find warriors, rescued children (who will grow up), witches, marriages, relationships, mythology, magic and more. All is intricate and the story is told in an involving way.

Pulley fans and those who have read books by Natalie Haynes, Madeline Miller and Jennifer Saint may well want to read this novel.

Kirkus Reviews says: “This love story is witty, bittersweet, surprising, and compellingly readable.” I agree.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bloomsbury USA for this title. All opinions are my own.
