OPHELIA is an original romantasy fiction series from Hatch, inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet, where Ophelia finally takes center stage. Book 1 begins in a kingdom where magic is outlawed and the land itself is dying. Ophelia has always been expected to stay silent—agreeable, invisible, safe. But on the eve of her twenty-first birthday, something within her awakens. As she reconnects with Prince Hamlet, heir to a crumbling throne, and his brilliant, guarded friend Horatio, Ophelia is drawn into a dangerous world of court intrigue, hidden power, and forbidden attraction. Caught between love, loyalty, and a magic she cannot deny, she must decide: remain hidden… or risk everything for freedom, desire, and the fate of her kingdom. Narrated by Genevieve Gaunt, this immersive audio drama blends fantasy romance, forbidden magic, and slow-burning desire into a richly cinematic listening experience, perfect for unwinding at the end of the day. Ideal for fans of romantasy, fantasy romance, Shakespeare retellings, and narrative fiction podcasts, OPHELIA is a bold reimagining of a classic story told across a sweeping trilogy, thoughtfully designed for sleep.
