Publisher Description
The INSTANT New York Times bestseller!
Available for the first time in audio, this recording of Blood of Hercules features four narrators: Meg Sylvan, Teddy Hamilton, Aiden Snow and Tristan Morris! The overnight viral sensation everyone is talking about, Blood of Hercules is a sarcastically funny, dark fantasy romance reimagining of Hercules from bestselling author Jasmine Mas.
I’m just a girl. And it turns out, I’m Hercules.
I’m struggling to survive in a Titan infested world where Spartans, immortals from twelve royal families who have god-like powers and obscene wealth, rule over all. A shy-stammering foster child with nothing, I keep my head down, cover my scars, and focus on excelling in school. At least, I try to. Then it happens.
My blood test reveals I’m part of the powerful elite. I’m one of them. A Spartan.
Forced to attend the Spartan War Academy, I undergo the most harrowing test of all time to see if I have what it takes to be an immortal. There’s just a few problems. Achilles and Patro are my scary mentors. Kharon, the ferryman of death, and Augustus, the son of war, are my terrifying professors. Also, I’m pretty sure either someone’s stalking me everywhere I go, or my sanity’s slipping––I have a bad feeling both are true.
I’m surrounded by Villains and they’re smothering me with their hate, obsession, and dark possessiveness. Too bad for them, they have no clue just who they’re messing with.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
If Percy Jackson’s YA labors made you love Greek mythology–inspired fantasy but they just weren’t grim enough, this dark romantasy has your name on it. Growing up as a viciously abused, homeless foster child in a late 21st-century world devastated by the brutish, nearly invincible Titans, Alexis has learned how to endure. And she will need all of that endurance, plus her considerable intelligence—and an invisible talking snake that only she can hear—when she is plucked out of her squalid circumstances and brought to the Spartan War Academy. Turns out that Alexis is an abandoned Spartan, one of the potentially immortal, bloodthirsty, constantly infighting beings who can challenge the Titans. Now many powerful beings have their attention directed toward Alexis. Can she survive long enough to get through the academy’s cruel training process? And what other secrets are buried in her background? A full cast of narrators heightens the extreme difference between what Alexis believes about herself and how others perceive her, plunging you deep into their thrillingly villainous (and often erotically charged) milieu. Now is your chance to see what gods—and monsters—really get up to.
Customer Reviews
Highly recommend
From the start, it was a page turner. I was instantly hooked to what was happening. Thoroughly enjoyed the modern day Greek mythology, and having the characters names be something familiar and unique. Really enjoyed the character development, built tension, and plot twist of what was happening. Looking forward to the next book.
hilarious!!!
This girl’s inner dialogue is too good! I absolutely love her and the narrator gets it to perfection! My only complaint is where the heck is Teddy Hamilton? I need more!!
Don’t waste your time
wish I could get back all the hours I spent listening to it. Absolutely horrible!
