This series keeps going strong! Genre are some issues with the pacing, some dialogs that evolve a bit strangely, but it's from time to time and the book was still really good. The drawings are still lovely, the characters fleshed out and the narrative interesting.

 Creo que la trama como tal es curiosa e interesante, pero sigo teniendo dificultades para compaginar a estas representaciones con los seres que he conocido a través de la mitología. No me parece como tal un re-telling, pues no cuenta los mitos desde la idea original pero modernizados, ni dándoles un twist, solo usa los personajes en ellos, es más como un fanfiction en mi opinión.

No obstante, fuera de ello, como trama propia es interesante y emocional. La defensa de Zeus a Apolo es de las representaciones más simples, más realistas y más terribles que he visto del pacto patriarcal. Qué asco.

I’m in love with the artistic rendering of Persephone. She’s beautiful and sassy and adorable all in one. The story is so good — and the characters in a modern world are so interesting!
