Firstly I want to thank Kaitlin for kindly providing me with a copy of Persephone to read and review. I fricking Loved this...I love things all God like and Deities.... Greek Mythology at it's best.Growing up can be difficult for a teenager, especially when they start to see things, hear things, imagine things.....what can make it a more "difficult" experience is to learn that your mother has lied to you your whole life.....yeah sucks huh?That's how it's going for Persephone, also known as Kora, in this story. She learns of a whole new "realm" one where she came from....yeah if this was me I would be tripping...seriously I would think this was some prank and that I was having a...a.. well I can't decide if it would be a dream or a nightmare...For me this is the first story I have personally read of Hades & Persephone.....so I can't compare...not that I compare stories anyway, each to their own and all that jazz....Persephone need to take her new "role" with a chip on her shoulder....she's been thrust into a world of no explanation, a world completely out of her comfort zone and to top it off...yeah, there's this dark, brooding and devilishly handsome God named.....HADES!This guy was NOT what I was expecting, I mean you've all heard the stories and when you think of Hades, the God of Death, The King of the Underworld, that's exactly what you picture....death & destruction, but Oh NO!This guy is anything but death and for him and Persephone to be "connected" to one another, takes this already awesome story to another level...The plot was filled with lots of twists and turns and had plenty of action, romance, or sometimes both, to keep the reader intrigued and left hanging by a thread at the end...
