Stephannie Beman's book My Lord Hades was a wonderful interpretation on the love story of Hades and Persephone.  I won't go into the plot since the other reviews had done that beautifully.Hades was a great hero, complex and very sexy.  He was very tough but so gentle with Persephone.  Persephone was a delightful character, also very complex.  We started out not knowing much about her and as the story unfolded we discovered exactly who she was.  Their characters were explored in depth and I really felt like I got to know them.  Both were strong characters and I really enjoyed their love story.  It was not without strife or conflict but love did triumph in the end.  The secondary characters really added to the story and I enjoyed them, especially Thanatos.I really enjoyed this book.  It was very well written.  This is a new author so I started reading it not knowing what to expect and I was very pleasantly surprised.  I found it complex, entertaining, creative and a joy to read.  Bravo to the author.  I will definitely look forward to reading more by her.  Highly recommended.
