About this listen

All murders must be avenged.

While the rest of Greece mourns for the war that has taken their husbands away, Clytemnestra fears the day it will bring hers back.

When her husband willingly sacrifices their eldest daughter to appease the Gods, Clytemnestra vows to do whatever it takes to protect her remaining children. But in doing so she faces losing them altogether.

A story of love, loss and bitter betrayals, A Spartan's Sorrow shows that sometimes you must risk it all to protect the ones you love.

If you are a fan of vengeful Gods and fierce family rivalries you will love Hannah Lynn's epic tale of ancient Greece's most formidable Queen.

This is the second of Hannah Lynn's books and I am now officially hooked!

This story of Clytemnestra is told beautifully and doesn't shy away from the darker side either.

I genuinely laughed and cried at different parts. I thoroughly enjoyed this and couldn't stop listening. had a couple of late nights staying up listening as I couldn't bear to peel myself away from the story.

I loved the way the story ties into the mythology, also the fates appearance as more than just a side thing.

Imaginative and engaging retelling of a classic Greek myth. Excellent narration by the author who developed a separate voice for each of the key players. Found it hard to switch off as I had to know what was going to happen next. I've listened to a number of these 'retellings' and I've enjoyed them all.
