In my opinion Scarlett St. Clair writes the best Greek Mythology re-telling's. I am so impressed by the amount of research that goes into these smutty little fantasy novels. 

I loved this book but I had a hard time getting into it because of the time between releases/reads and also the heavy topics addressed. I think the authors writing has improved a lot though. I really enjoy the Hades POV because it adds so many extra layers and understanding to Persophones POV. 

My biggest complaint is the order in which these books are released and the time between. I think the final book of the series with dual POV will be released before the third Hades standalone which kind of ruins it a bit for me.
