Resumen del Editor

Become enchanted by the fantasy world of gods and mortals in bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair's reimagined New Greece. Listeners are "hopelessly addicted" to the story of Hades and Persephone told from Hades's point of view.

Hades, God of the Dead, does not take sides or bend the rules. He makes no exceptions to these values—not for god or mortal, even his lover, Persephone, Goddess of Spring.

Usually, fear prevents retaliation.

But not this time.

When Hera, Goddess of Women, approaches Hades with a plan to overthrow Zeus, he declines to offer help. As punishment, Hera sentences Hades to perform a series of labors. Each feat seems more impossible than the last and draws his attention away from Persephone—whose own tragedy has left her questioning whether she can be Queen of the Underworld.

Can Hades maintain the balance he craves?

Contains mature themes.

Not a good narrator he doesn’t know how to pronounce key characters names

“loose” is what hey calls “LAY-O-KEY” and he also pronounces “Heck-a-tee” wrong several times

as usual amazing story!!

love listening to hades point of view of these books as well. such great storytelling!!

Love this author!

I absolutely cannot wait for the next book of the Hades/Persephone seriesas well as the other series that this Author is writing!

I love Hades side of it all

I’m not a fan of the narrator, but I got used to it at this point . I love the way Hades carries himself so seriously & his point of view is so much different than Persephone’s but this book is just as good as the last . Really looking forward to the next books!

Retribution

I love that we get Hades POV especially since there was a lot of behind the scenes when it came to A Touch of Ruin.

Love this series

The spice the plot and Hermes one of the best characters besides hades and persephone

Love it

I absolutely love hearing hades perspectives it gives you both sides of the story and you get to see what hades was doing when he was always busy

Enjoying the stories, issue with the audio.

Really enjoy hades POV BUT (and I don’t know who’s fault this is) the pronunciation of Leuce in this book was different than in A Touch of Ruin Persephone POV and it drove me insane. I thought it was a nickname Hades had for her and then I realized that was not the case, then thought maybe the author changed it but NOPE. Hopefully moving forward the two stories can get on the same page with how they pronounce Leuce in the recordings because it was really distracting.

Great Saga!

I love this Saga. It is truly a work of art. I will however say sometimes when the male narrator uses female voices it sounds a bit funny. As well as the words they read in the narration is not the same as what is written in the physical book sometimes. I tend to listen to the book and read along with the physical copy and have noticed this in this one and in others in the series. Some of the names are pronounced differently too from the male narrator and female narrator. For example the name Leuce.

Hades POV Book 2

I continue to prefer Hades POV, but compared to Persephone’s it lacks detail. The gaps are filled in with what I know from A Touch of Ruin, so definitely read those first. Hades POV also redeems Persephone’s whiney, immature behavior a bit. However, the newness has worn off and the 🌶️ no longer makes up for the lack of plot, so here’s to hoping books 3 dives a little deeper on the world of Olympia and the gods.

Overall a good, easy read, and it ended on a cliffhanger that will bring me back for the third installment.
