Lore Olympus is supposed to be a retelling of the myth of Persephone and Hades, though the author twisted the tale ruining old myths. She also doesnt have a diverse cast of characters and the relationship between hades and Persephon is kinda creepy and gives me weird vibes, as Persephone is 18 and Hades centuries older, and even tho Hades knows this, he still acts like a creep. Wouldnt reccomend
