4.5
The Hades Trial by Eliza Raine is the complete trilogy including The Power of Hades, the Passion of Hades and The Promise of Hades. This was jam packed with Greek mythology, suspense, magic, and romance. This trilogy was such an exciting and fun read. I loved that I was able to read all three books back to back in this complete. I could not stop reading this trilogy. I loved the world building and characters. The plotline was also well paced and interesting. I am totally reading the next Dark Gods of Olympus Complete Trilogy.
Persephone was so relatable! I loved her personality from the beginning. I loved watching her discover her strength and power. I also loved how she handled the world of Olympus. Her and Hades were so amazing together. The trials were suspenseful and exciting. It definitely kept me on my toes waiting to see what the next trial would be. Also the mystery regarding Persephone’s past life was so good. I would totally recommend this trilogy if you love Greek mythology and romance!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5
HAPPY READING

I just absolutely wanted to love this series. The storyline was a fantastic idea but the execution was.. lazy. There were so many opportunities for growth both in characters and lore. The “gotcha” moment at the end where we discover Zeus is essentially behind all of it, as well as Cronos being manipulative could have been played out so much better. Each trial round should have been one book. This would have allowed for significant character development and storyline growth. I am so upset about all of the storyline that was missed out on because of rushing to churn a story out. This story is so beautiful and the potential was astronomical. Disappointed all around.

Amazing! I would absolutely read this again, and I'm adding it to my must buy a physical copy list. It's an 18 years old and up book, NOT YA! However, it only heads that direction a few time and doesn't take over the whole plot like similar books I have read. I love how Hades accepts Persephone's power instead of seeing it as dangerous to him or being afraid she will be more powerful than him. Overall, awesome book. I couldn't put it down!

What a ride that was! Honestly, this was such a good book/omnibus. I learnt so much more than I ever expected to and had such a fun time doing so.

I am aware that this is three books in one. But this was about 300 pages too long.

I was expecting a no plot just smüt type of book and I was wrong it’s action packed with great side characters. The relationship between hades and Persefone was meh in a good way and there was a lot of scenes going to black but as a survival type of book it was pretty good. The end was totally anticlimactic

Found this book on Kindle Unlimited and thought it might be good. I was actually very impressed. The plot was good and not the traditional Hades/Persephone retelling. Definitely worth a read
