Okay, talk about major MAJOR twists in the plot and characters! I’m pretty sure I was shouting/gasping “WTF?!” while reading 90% of this vol. It was a little nuts. I think the final issues of this one packed more gut-punching action than vol 4 did! So many deaths I did not anticipate and soo many twists revealed—especially that last one with the talking heads and the massive evil character reveal? Whaat!
Clearly, this volume had a lot going on. Minor character redemption for Persy but not sure if that’s gonna last. I reckon at this point my favorite characters are only Baal and Cass. But seriously, the storyline? I’m intrigued and I want (I want!) to know more, yet I feel like at this point the creators are just going to throw even more random, crazy twists without giving us readers any clear idea of what direction this story is gonna go. No questions answered, only more questions piled on! Hmm...

Another great installment of the series with some mind-blowing revelations!
I really enjoyed some of the new perspectives we got to see. I loved the bits of the issues that focused on Dionysus. I loved the scenes between him and
We also get a glimpse into Persephone/Laura's motivations and feelings, and I hope that we see more of that.
The big twists in this collection of issues are huge and really take the story in new directions.
Everything was well done. It strikes a good balance between character development and action.

Man, these gods got problems! The art is still glorious and the story is intriguing enough I do believe I'll go start the next volume.

Now things are getting a little crazy! Ananke is gone, killed by one of their own. Minerva is manipulating her way through the others. But some of them are picking up on it. We learn more about Woden and who he is and what made him what he is.

Holy shit what an emotional punch to the gut. This series is amazing and the creators should be proud of themselves. I can't wait to get a hold of book 7.
