- "You are not a monster. You never were. You were a weapon in his hands, and now you're free." Her chest heaved with emotion. "And I will burn this world to the ground before I let him take you again."
First off I need book 3, like now.
Wow this book absolutely exceeded my expectations! I absolutely adore the chemistry between Kore & hades, I also loved that Poseidon & Zeus was seen quite a lot in this book. (Poseidon being my absolute favourite ♥️)
The ending of this book tore me into two, and felt so genuine. I loved how there is a balance between romance & action with twists that kept me guessing throughout. I kept thinking all the way through that this would be an incredible movie!
I am so glad I went in completely blind to this series because it does not disappoint! I cannot wait to see what comes next!
- “I am a child of the Lady you so adamantly serve. And so, you serve me. You do not own me. And you're going to help me."
In this book we once again follow the story of Kore and Hades; it gets grim and dark and nasty. And seriously... that ending? Oh no. Why?! And how long do I have to wait for the next book?
I loved this book almost as much as the first one. My only regret is that we didn't get to see the MMC doing more... But on the bright side, I have a new favourite character. And my favourite depiction of Poseidon yet.
C. L. York's writing style is beautiful, clean, and easy to read but not lacking anything, neither in descriptions nor in lore on Greek mythology. It reads fast and will leave you wanting more.
