Wrath Goddess Sing A Novel

"Wrath Goddess Sing is literary fantasy at its finest." - Alina Boyden, author of Stealing Thunder

"A bold, shining tapestry, weaving a bloody tale of war, birthright, and divinity with a tender story of longing, identity, and love. Epic and triumphant." - Ava Reid, author of The Wolf and the Woodsman

"This is a beautiful, bloody, glorious, revelation of a book... the mold-breaking trans epic I didn't even know I was craving." - Charlie Jane Anders, bestselling author

"A magnificently wild ride from beginning to end. As fierce in friendship as it is in love and war, this is The Iliad taken into the stratosphere-no longer merely epic, but cosmic. I can't stop thinking about it!" - Shelley Parker-Chan, bestselling author of She Who Became the Sun

"Deane's tour de force debut gives The Iliad the beating heart of a legendary warrior....Deane's narrative soars: epic in scope without ever growing tedious, with a huge supporting cast (including many wonderful LGBTQ characters) that readers will have no trouble keeping straight due to their beautifully shaded personalities. Add in massive battle scenes, meddling gods, and all the cultures of the ancient Mediterranean, and the result brings the familiar story to fresh, vivid, and unforgettable new life." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Groundbreaking, heart-wrenching, and devastatingly smart, Wrath Goddess Sing is a triumph. In Achilles, Maya Deane has truly given us a heroine for the ages." - Genevieve Gornichec, author of The Witch's Heart

"Beautifully realized ... a mythic reinvention for the ages." - BookPage

"The wine-dark sea takes on extra luminescence in this stunning re-creation of the Fall of Troy. Deane's Achilles is unforgettable, as are her deep ties to friends and enemies alike. Written in the brilliant tradition of Mary Renault, Wrath Goddess Sing achieves its own epic standing. A tour de force not to be missed. Highly recommended." - Historical Novel Society

"It is, in many ways, a great book, and one that will...start discussions. The writing stands out and draws the reader in, creating a unique book and one I will think about for a long time to come." - Grimdark Magazine

"Deane has gone into the incredibly crowded field of current mythological retellings, and blown them all out of the water by doing something ambitious, powerful, meaningful and different...you can feel the love and the research that has gone into the authenticity, while at the same time the creativity and ambition that has gone into the divergences, all of which come together to form a beautiful, coherent whole." - Nerds of a Feather
