A bit confused as to why Persephone has just up and at 'em left, but I feel like that's just going to make the next volume that much more excited!! I love that the characters are all ganging up together to look for Persephone in their respective crew (even if for separate reasons). Excited for volume six!!!

The narrative diverges a lot bit from the bigger picture, but this edition helps us go deeper into the plans of the side characters come into fruition, and to see how the relationship between Hades and Persephone is continuing to deepen.

I feel like this series is the epitome of the slow burn between Hades and Persephone. We get a bit more background from Persephone in this one, and it does make me interested in seeing where it goes next. Especially with that sort of cliffhanger at the end.

Though it's hard to keep all of the characters straight all the time (there's a lot in Greek mythology, honestly), most of the time it's easy to follow what's going on. My favorite thing about this series remains the art. Smythe's art style is so interesting, colorful, and engaging. I will definitely keep reading it just for that.
