In Madeline Miller's *Circe*, the daughter of the sun god Helios is an odd child. Turning to mortals for companionship, she discovers the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves. Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult skill, tames wild beasts, and crosses paths with the Minotaur, Daedalus, Odysseus, and Telemachus. Circe discovers she has the power to stand up to the gods, choosing whether she belongs with the deities she is born from, or the mortals she has come to love.
