This wasn't my favorite of the series, but it was slightly better than Wicked Beauty.

Smutty, fantastical world building. Hint or two of non-monogamy.

This was really really great! I really enjoyed the polyamorous dynamics and the bisexuality/pansexuality that was treated as a baseline rather than a “complexity” or something needs to be discussed, it just IS. I found it wonderfully refreshing. 
Also, special shout out to having both they/them AND Xe/Xem usage in this book!!

This is one of the few series I develop every time a new book comes out, and I constantly need the next one ASAP. Even though this one isn't a new favorite in the series, I still really enjoyed it. There is always so much going on in these books, but I wanted to focus on the big mystery that involved the whole series more. Regardless, Aphrodite, Adonis, and Pandora were so much fun to read about! Even Hephaestus was all right. I just can't wait to see what happens in the next book, and we're getting so close to the end of the series!
