About this listen
'Lyrical, imaginative, visceral, urgent, moving, adventurous . . . brings The Fates startlingly back to life' SEAN LUSK, author of The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesley
'Passionate, angry, empowering and beautiful' LOUISE BEECH, author of Nothing Else
Before Gods and mortals, there were The Fates . . .
You've heard the legends: three sisters born out of Nyx's darkness, destined to weave the lives, and deaths, of humankind for eternity.
But immortality is a heavy burden, and Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos are captivated by the gloriously human lives of the mortals below, especially those of the great warrior Atalanta and her ill-fated lover, Meleager.
However, being a Goddess of Fate doesn't make you a master of it. Will these three sisters find a way to free the couple, and themselves, from their destinies? Or will they be bound by Fate forever?

I already loved Atalanta stories and this book cemented that.
What a fantastic view into the lives of the fates among those of the Gods. Loved hearing the original feminist legend at the heart of the story.

The story built up slowly but intriguingly. .
All the names were muddling and I wondered if they were all in Greek mythology. It built up though to a fabulous ending full of suspense and surprise.

Hard to finish
Hard to finish and honestly as the Fates are among my favourite mythological figures, I did not sadly resonate with the author's interpretation of them.
