Podcast Review: Hera’s Rage, Power, and Pain in Jennifer Saint’s Latest Retelling

In today’s episode, I’m diving deep into Jennifer Saint’s newest mythological masterpiece, Hera—and trust me, it’s not the story you think you know.

This retelling gives the queen of the gods the spotlight she’s long deserved. Too often dismissed as just a jealous wife, Hera reintroduces her as a fierce, wounded, and powerful goddess trapped in a loveless marriage with Zeus. Jennifer Saint crafts a richly layered narrative that reclaims Hera’s identity—from warrior and strategist to goddess silenced by betrayal.

Whether you’re a fan of Greek mythology, feminist retellings, or just looking for a character-driven read that packs an emotional punch, this episode is for you.
