A Veil of Gods and Kings by Nicole Bailey
3.0
It was good, nothing special really, but a fun tale for anyone interested in Greek mythology. I liked Apollo and Hyacinth a lot.
However, in my opinion, Epiphany’s storyline was entirely unnecessary. It broke up the rhythm of the story, and it was like it was from an entirely different book. I think it would’ve worked better as two separate books, with one about Apollo and Hyacinth, and one about Epiphany and Valerian.
Apollo and Hyacinth’s story was entirely a love story, while Epiphany’s was about injustice against women. Two entirely different stories with entirely different themes. They never overlapped, either, which meant it made even less sense for both storylines to be going at the same time.
