Details
In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child--not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother.

Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses ...
