I like Hades' side better than Persephone's in A Touch of Ruin. They seem darker and touch on deeper more interesting storylines

like the impending war with the Gods

. Hades' perspective also seems more explicit. I want to listen to the next books concurrently. I love Hermes and Hectate moments. ❤️
