Praise for Hekate: The Witch:
* "Irish Indian poet and author Nikita Gill (The Girl and the Goddess) revives the figure of Hekate in a gripping coming-of-age story told not in epic verse, but in deeply personal poems from the goddess's point of view." ―Shelf Awareness, starred review

* "A beautiful coming-of-age story about a young woman who pushes boundaries, makes mistakes, and courageously moves forward despite learning increasingly heartbreaking truths about the world around her.... Strongly recommended for fans of Greek and Roman mythology, particularly feminist retellings such as Jennifer Saint's Ariadne or Madeline Miller's Circe."―School Library Journal, starred review

"A magical journey of survival and discovery through the Greek Underworld. Populated with unforgettable gods and titans and narrated in dream-like poetry, Hekate is a unique creation and the most original addition to the retelling genre I have read in a while." - Costanza Casati, bestselling author of Clytemnestra

"Nikita Gill has a gift for slicing deftly through these complex myths to reveal the glittering, poignant truth at their heart. In Hekate, we are plunged into a vivid and imaginatively wrought divine world that is monstrous, magical and beautiful through the perspective of a bewildered child of war who grows up to understand and embrace her power. It's a timely and achingly resonant reflection on conflict, fear and the unbreakable bonds of family conveyed in exquisite, evocative poetry." - Jennifer Saint, author of Ariadne

"Hekate must be a work of stunning witchcraft, because I was spellbound from its very opening pages. Gill's lyrical prose is pure magic and brings the captivating, enigmatic Hekate to life so beautifully, exploring the life of a goddess fighting to find her place and power in the world."--Rosie Hewlett, bestselling author of Medea

"The richly imagined setting serves as a vibrant backdrop for Hekate's journey of self-discovery and actualization as she uncovers dark secrets and meets familiar and novel figures of Greek myth."―Publishers Weekly

"Poet Gill's recognizable voice anchors this work as much in mythology as in the perils of modern girl- and womanhood; alongside the familiar narrative beats of an adventure story, she explores with care generational trauma, sexual violence, and the cost of war.... Fiercely feminist, this reimagining of a lesser-known goddess crackles with magic."―Kirkus
