So this wasn't a case of will they/won't they; it was a case of when will they?? I enjoyed the characterization of the Gods and Goddesses of the Greek pantheon. I liked the unique feature of the various antlers Scarlett gave them in their divine forms, but honestly my brain kept switching between my favorite web comic versions of the characters (Rachel Smythe's Lore Olympus and Linda Sejic's Punderworld versions). I'm excited that this is a series because I'm definitely not done with these characters, and I'm excited to see more of the rest of the deities as I make my way through the rest of the books (eventually!).
