description: Perfect for fans of Madeline Miller's Circe, Jennifer Saint’s Elektra, or Scarlett St. Clair's A Touch of Darkness, this story combines romance and Greek mythology in a twist of several famous myths.In the belly of the Underworld, Thanatos has reigned as the God of Death since time immemorial, disregarding his own fearsome reputation and the loneliness that comes with it.When Nyx, the Goddess of Night, assigns him a partner for the first time, Thanatos is forced to accommodate the newcomer — the one thing that ancient gods don’t do well, is change.Makaria is the newest goddess of the Underworld, plucked from her isolated life as a solitary priestess by Nyx herself. When she learns her new immortality is conditional, she realizes it’s more tenuous than she ever bargained for.Meanwhile, Apollo holds an ancient grudge and plans his revenge meticulously. When he unleashes his wrath on the mortal realm, it may destroy all of Greece.Thanatos and Makaria are forced to combine their forces to try and save the world, but both will have to put aside their differences and learn how to be a team in order to have a chance at surviving.Molly Tullis’s “Enamored in Death”, the third in the Asphodel Series, takes a look at the ancient world of Greece with a new kind of myth — putting the spotlight back on the powerful women that the world hopes we would forget.“Enamored in Death” is a mythological historical fiction set in the ancient world; it contains graphic violence, swearing, and sex scenes.
