Amazon Review 5 out of 5 STARS from author D.KINLOCK
“Delphi”, the latest installment in the Women Unveiled series, is a masterful tale that marries the mystique of ancient mythology with the raw vulnerabilities of human existence. While the book serves as a sequel to Dancing the Labyrinth, it stands confidently as a compelling standalone novel.
The narrative follows Cressida, a heroine whose journey is both deeply personal and universally resonant. Four years after retreating to a Minoan cave in search of solace, her fragile peace is disrupted by the sudden arrival of an enigmatic aunt. This encounter stirs childhood wounds and forces Cressida to grapple with the tension between her newfound freedom and the seductive allure of love and financial security. The emotional stakes are immediately palpable, setting the tone for a story that is as introspective as it is epic.
At the heart of “Delphi” is Cressida’s odyssey to the ancient sanctuary of Delphi, driven by prophetic dreams and a yearning for clarity. The novel breathes life into the Oracle’s timeless wisdom, using it as a mirror for Cressida’s inner turmoil. Her quest, however, takes on cosmic significance when she discovers her destiny as a savior for humanity—a revelation that blurs the lines between myth and reality.”
Delphi is undeniably a unique and magical book. Its lush and engaging characters, along with its intricate tapestry of myths and legends, paint a world that fantasy enthusiasts will find hard to resist. LITERARY TITAN
Like the place and the myths surrounding it, Delphi is a sophisticated, nuanced and often disconcerting exploration of trauma and how this manifests itself within a quest for self-identity. Dean Kalimniou NEOS KOSMOS
