"IF EYES COULD EAT, LORE OLYMPUS WOULD BE A FEAST." —NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
I read the line webtoon then bought the books because this series has so much heart put into it!! Draws so many parallels to the actual mythologies the stories are based on, not even just the story of Hades and Persephone but the other gods, too! Highly recommend if you're a book collector
It's very cute! The story gets really interesting after the first volume. I really enjoyed the art and the bonus chapters. It is a webtoon but the bonus chapters are not featured on the app to my knowledge, so I will be reading the remaining volumes via printed copy for this reason.
LORE OLYMPUS is beautifully illustrated and the characters well-written. I can quibble with the pacing a bit, but it's a very enjoyable adult comic reading experience.
