"'The Mortal Realm- it's dying'
After years of yearning, the big day has finally arrived: Hades and Persephone are getting married! It's the ceremony of the century, and practically all the gods are invited to celebrate the happy couple. The wedding, full of love and joy, provides a much-needed respite for the pantheon... but the newlyweds have no time for a honeymoon.
The king and queen of the Underworld begin unprecedented dives into the dream world to find the god that Kronos took hostage- and, hopefully, to get answers on defeating the furious titan once and for all. During their explorations, they begin to suspect that Persephone's powers of spring may have been altered. Their theory is proven correct with deadly consequences: When Persephone returns to the Mortal Realm, Apollo uses the chaos as cover for an attempt to kill Zeus. He claims his dying father's throne and decrees that the only way to save the Mortal Realm is if Persephone- and her power- belong to him. The others reject his outrageous demand, proposing instead that whoever can fix the failing seasons will be named interim ruler of Olympus. Hope now rests with the struggling goddess to find a way to stop the treacherous Apollo and save humankind- or else be separated from Hades forever."
My Rating: 5/5
I still love this series. I like that this one felt so impactful to the series. The twists and turns were entertaining, but not out of left field. I also enjoyed seeing how the characters spoke about their pasts in a way that matched their myths while still maintaining the contemporary setting.
