This is not the book for you if you're looking for anything remotely accurate to Greek mythology. Also, the very first chapter establishes that Kate is eighteen so I don't know why someone said this had a graphic adult/minor relationship.

Really enjoyed this. Intriguing concept, easy and captivating read, and *just* enough twists to prevent the narrative petering out. Less action and more emotional death than necessarily expected, but a good read: I’ll be seeking out the sequels.
