The fifth and penultimate tale in The Underworld Novellas ― for fans of cosy, low-stake fantasies like Legends & Lattes ― You Are What You Eat in the Underworld is filled with Greek mythology, rich food, found family, and a touch of whimsy. In this novella, we welcome childhood friends Yani and Lexie.

​

It’s not often your own mother tries to kill you.

​

That’s what led Lexie to Arethusa’s Well all those years ago, where she met Yani, a water nymph with an ancient lineage of his own.

​

Both seeking refuge from families hunting them, together they flee and build a new life in Asphodel Meadows. Lexie becomes Yani’s anchor in the unfamiliar world on land, and he becomes her best friend.

​

But, can two such different creatures really depend on one another in territory that isn’t familiar to either of them? The Fates brought them together, but their true natures might tear them apart.

Step into the Underworld, where the boundary between myth and reality blurs, and love and friendship are tested by the Fates and nature itself.
