Persephone is back she's back to compete for a throne she has no recollection of and to redeem and discover powers she seemed to have lost. What I loved about this book was how easy it is to be swept of by its world, its characters, and the action and mystery it packs within.

Surprisingly, it led her to where it all began, the Underworld. From the first chapter alone I was immediately engrossed with Persephone's journey and where it would lead her. This book is amazing! I couldn't stop reading it the moment I started.
#HADES POWERS FREE#
Note: I received a free soft copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. It was not a bad book, but I do not care enough to want to know what will happen next. I do not think that I will continue with this series. She has no character, no spunk, no special talent, or particular qualities to make her appealing. There is much potential for feisty and colorful characters when you are in the realms of Olympus and yet the gods feel as if they are all interchangeable, and Persephone is your everyday boring mundane girl. The pace of the story is good, but the characters are bland and quite boring. All she does is plan a party with a goddess (actually, the goddess plans everything, and Persephone only hosts the event), I feel that some information is missing for me to really get into this story. I was also expecting more flirting and more interactions between Hades and Persephone. I was hoping for more details, but until the last 10 pages, we knew absolutely nothing about the reasons for her mortal life without powers and memories. It feels as if the whole story is about Persephone asking for her memories and everyone telling her that she could not have them. She discovers that she is Hades' first wife but has no memories of it and she is not a goddess with powers anymore. That is until she is abducted and sent to Hades realm to compete in the trials to find his next wife. Meet Persephone, a human barista working in New York and studying to become a botanist or garden creator, or something linked to gardens and plants. It was a mind-blowing read and only for the writer's knowledge in ancient history from 4.5 stars it gets 5!
#HADES POWERS FULL#
For those who have studied ancient greek, you'll know what I am talking about.įunny, engaging, charming, full of surprises, promising, and entertaining. I really enjoyed this read.Īnd so you know, I was stunned that the writer knew even the name of the gods' blood. Sure, it is the classical tale of Persephone and Hades but with a new perspective. And the title, we see Persephone, why the title to be about him!? And if I can say that note in the first pages of the book was promising and feministic.Ībout the cover, I love the lettering and the colours but the Hades there looks like a dom. We didn't have any rapid changes where we would question from where the f* came that. The Atmosphere was steady throughout the whole book. It had tension and a need loomed into it to know what the actual fuck was going on. It was really refreshing to find a writer that knows more things about the basic 12 faces of the ancient Greek gods and mold it into something as nice as that was.
#HADES POWERS SERIES#
I received an ARC of this book in an exchange for an honest review.Įverything you are about to read is my messy thoughts and opinions.Īhhh, well now that it has finished I am actually kinda disappointed that I don't have the next installment in the series (yet).
If I win the trials, I have to marry the devil himself.
But then what? And why, why, why am I so desperate to see under Hades smoky exterior and find out what he's hiding from me? It's the only way I'll survive the Hades Trials. And I'm going to have to prove to all of them that there's a goddess of hell inside me. Sexy-as-hell maniacs, sure, but as dangerous as they come. I'm surrounded by lethal, all-powerful maniacs. But I can't leave without completing the trials and they've been designed for a godly Queen, not Persephone - barista and botanical garden enthusiast. I have to get back home, to New York and my brother. Who the hell wants a husband at all, let alone one made of smoke and riddled with death? Which would mean marrying Hades, the utterly terrifying Lord of the Dead. Plucked from the streets of Manhattan and frightened half to death by a freaking Olympian god.Īnd now I'm trapped in the Underworld, being forced to compete in a series of deadly trials for the position of Queen of the Underworld.
