Having the boat sharing the name of it's constructor I could deal with but having a unrelated character also named Argo pop up in the same narrative? That's too much for me :/

Without thinking about the other Argo(s) in greek mythology: the many-eyed gigant that guardes Io, Ulysses' dog, and oh a litteral city! (and it's king)

Sleep filled him with dreams of fruit and leaves; wakefulness kept him from picking even a mulberry. And the two together divided his limbs among the Bacchae.

You truly believe he’s sitting in a chapel, counting the hours, whiling away the year waiting for me to come?

MACBETH (2015) DIR. JUSTIN KURZEL

All hail Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter.

[7sofia7]

[...] But the men Of the Round Table sat silent at their meat, stuffed, Now, with grim business. Gawain Enjoyed the beginning of the game, in his king’s Court, but no one would laugh at the end – For men may be cheerful, mulling their wine, But a year runs fast, and always runs different; Start and finish are never the same. So Christmas goes by, after the other: Christmas pursued by uncomfortable Lent. Trying men’s flesh with simple food And with fish; then fair weather fights with foul, Clouds fil the sky, the cold shrinks away, Rain falls clear in warm showers, And the flat earth opens into flowers And fields and plains grow thick and green, Birds start their nests and sing like angels For love of soft summer, creeping across The slopes; And hedgerows swell tall, And blossoms blow open, And glorious woods are all Wchoing joy and hope. And after summer’s soft winds, Zephyrus Whistles quietly with seeds and herbs, Sprouting delightful plants, painted Wet with dew falling from leaves, Waiting to be warm in the bright sun. Then autumn comes rushing, calling the plants To watch for winter, to grow while they can; And he dries the earth and drives dust Swirling to the sky, and wild winds Run to wrestle with the sun; leaves Are thrown form trees and lie dead on the ground, And green grass withers. And everything Slender and new ripens and rots, And a year runs away in passing days, And winter winds back, as winter must, Just so. Till the Michaelmas moon Promises snow – And Gawain soon Recalls what he has to do.

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (trad. Burton Raffel; lls. 492-535)

HOEAB - Juno Steel

House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City #1) really reminded me of Juno Steel

like:

sci-fi\urban fantasy

futuristic, corrupted and heavily surveillanced city in which human traditions are mixed with new space stuff 

main protagonist: is badass, does detective work, suffers depression\ guilt and loss really affects them 

sidekicks: short, fiesty, protective, loyal, funny, loves trash tv (Lehabah and Rita)

main protagonist has a friend of the past who is an assassin and work with highly classified cases (near the government) OR is part of a secret organisation . They don’t see the main very often and the relationship is strained but still you can fell all the feels (Sasha and Fury)

even though most of the story follow day to day detective work the main interacts quite often with politicians\higher ups in the government

SPOILERISH: long epic battle to save the city

BONUS: they both have quite large fandoms, so with both you are in for a treat ✨✨✨

I know that most of the similiarities are because of the genere they are in, so if you have similar recomendations send them to me
