Circe follows the story of the goddess by the same name, from her birth in the halls of Helios to the aftermath of her time with Odysseus. It is a retelling of the ancient myths through the eyes of the goddess who speaks like humans. Personally, I loved Circe's character development; how she grows out of her anxiety only to fall right back in.
