This book sounds like a beautiful mixture of poetry, classical literature, and mythology. Although I usually don't read poetry, I might give this one a try.

I’m looking forward to digging into this novel to find out how magical Orpheus’s musical prowess is that even stones dance to it and how he won Eurydice amid the enchanting world they live in.

I find that learning from what I'm reading a fun, educational experience. Normally I read, for pleasure, romance, fantasy and the occasional mystery, however this book sounds interesting due to the use of Greek mythology and language.

I find the premise of this book alone fascinating. I was glad to see that the author keeps telling you the details about Greek mythology, and also allows you to address different emotions in the process. This collection sounds interesting to me, and I'm definitely looking forward to reading it already. Thanks for this great review.

Greek mythologies always attract my interest, and in this poetic narration, the part where the author describes the ancient myths behind the natural phenomenon sound intriguing.
