Set in ancient Greece, the first installment of The Dark Pantheon Trilogy introduces Danae, the "last daughter" of a prophecy foretelling the end of the Twelve Gods. Lucy Walker-Evans narrates this debut audiobook, which brings new insights about Zeus, Prometheus, and other heroes. Danae is a fisherman's daughter whose life is never the same after she eats a golden apple. Eventually joining forces with Heracles and Jason and the Argonauts, she undertakes her quest. Walker-Evans gives a spirited narration, deftly handling more emotions than are usual in Greek myths. She guides the listener through the transformation of a poor girl who travels to the highest peak and looks down at the world, contemplating the deaths of the gods.
