Not my favorite book in the series but a good book nonetheless. I loved the spice, the relationship growth between Hades and Persephone, and the strength and intensity of so many female characters specifically Hecate. I didn't enjoy everything involving Dionysus, how similar this read to A Touch of Malice, and that cliffhanger!

Of all the books of the saga, this is my least favourite one. I am so sad because I have always enjoyed Hades's POV a tiny bit more than Sephy, and I felt underwhelmed with this book. Probably it was the Dionysius and Theseus. With D, it happened to me that I couldn't connect with them, his POV was all about how horny he was for Ari. I simply didn't care about them. I needed more background, I guess. With Theseus, it was simply what a villain would do, I didn't need a whole ass explanation why he was the villain. It felt just gross. Hermes, as always, has my favourite lines and I want to be his friend. 
I have more to say, probably I'll update this review

Of all the books so far in the Hades Saga (and the Persephone x Hades saga) - I would have to say this was my least favorite. The end half of the book was much more captivating then the beginning - so I am invested in seeing where the next book goes.

I’ve been reading this series in tandem and loved the first books but this one didn’t hold my interest as much. It dragged on a bit and I had no interest in the perspectives other than Hades.

Scarlett does it again! Another amazing read! This whole series has become a comfort series for me and has been helping me heal from someone who was my Lexa. I loved the addition of  Ariadne and  Dionysus was chefs kiss! They have easily become a new favorite couple along with Hades and Persephone. Also Hermes is still up to his antics and many times I was doubled over laughing. This series just keeps getting better and better. Cannot wait for Chaos!

I really enjoyed this book. This was probably my favorite storyline so far and it was great to read Hades' perspective. I loved the interactions with Hermes and Hectate. Dionysus was fine, but didn't keep me entertained as much as the Hades x Persephone story. Can't believe I have to wait over two months for the finale!!!
