She's not Eurydice, but she's caught the eye of hell's king...

Phoebe, a nature spirit of ancient Greece, loves her mountain birthplace and intends never to leave it. But the Olympian Artemis' dazzling glamor lures her away to join the goddess' retinue of handmaidens.

Initially the handmaidens welcome Phoebe warmly, but their friendship turns to bullying once Artemis turns her back. Phoebe's inexperience makes her no match for the mean girls, who win every verbal battle.

And when Phoebe chooses a protector other than the often-absent Artemis, she courts a danger far worse than cruel taunts or stinging slaps. Unless she learns to value herself for herself?rather than depending on the regard of others?she will perish in Hades' depths.

"Eurydice Otherwise" is the intense first tale in The Hades Cycle. If you enjoy ancient mythology brought to vivid life, you'll love the entrancing characters, inventive world building, and startling twists in J.M. Ney-Grimm's gripping short story of the old gods.
