The New Gods

By: Ripley Proserpina

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Kiss me or kill me?

All my life, I’ve been fascinated by stories about gods and the mortals they treated like toys.

Now I’m at Oxford University with a newly acquired doctorate, and I’m making a career out of my childhood obsession. There, among medieval buildings and famous libraries, I meet five men who have names right out of Greek mythology.

Achilles. Hector. Paris. Pollux. Orestes.

I’m drawn to them, not only because of their names, but by the passion they try to hide.

And the way our fates seem inexplicably linked.

Turns out, I’ve uncovered an ancient artifact that could do more than just turn the academic world on its head. It’s the key to releasing a pantheon of angry gods who’ve had millennia to plot their revenge. And it’s the reason these legends have emerged from the shadows.

Five men who were once princes, generals, and tragic heroes have vowed to stop at nothing to prevent the world from descending into chaos again. Even if it means ignoring the growing passion between us and wiping me off the face of the earth.

Virtual Voice is laughable.

I had already read the book on my kindle, but was intrigued to hear the virtual voice reading. The virtual voice is awful. It goes from sounding dead to putting emphasis in the wrong places. I hope the book will be narrated by a human actor in the future. The story is so good it deserves a high quality narrator.

The AI Voice is awful

I’ll be continuing the book, but not on audio. The AI voice is awful and the book deserves an actual narrator.

AI Narrated and Poorly Edited

I didn't realize this book was AI narrated when I bought it on sale. I should have tried to return it as soon as I started listening. On top of the poor AI narration the editing was terrible, especially around the chapters where the PoV switches.

To slow

I really hoped this book would get better. I liked the idea of a rh with Greek heros. This book was hard to get through. The female character was nothing special. The story was descriptive in a boring sense... It literally mentioned the female character was running out of fresh clothes to wear? The romance was eh and the spice was non existent. A whole lot of vanilla one guy at a time. Definitely not worth the nine hours for each book when I could have read it in a couple of hours by reading over the boring parts
