I’d been stalking her for years. My little witch was always just out of reach. But tonight, I’d gotten her scent. She could run as fast and as far as she liked. It made no difference. I would find her. And when I did, I’d drag my little witch to The Underworld to be my bride. My queen. My goddess forever.

I was powerless against his shadows, unable to do anything as the demon split the earth and The Realm of the Living fell away. He expected me to be terrified, but my life had already ended before he captured me. Death magic was ravaging our world, claiming hundreds of souls, and my twenty-first birthday was next month, the night when my life would be sacrificed to strengthen the weakening Earth Coven.

I'd thought Hades was my damnation, but he might just hold the key to awakening my magic and saving us all.

Love the voice actors for this, especially Hades. Had me curious as soon as I listened to the sample. Really good with headphones by the way. Smoking hot scenes too! I just don’t love that Persephone is a witch in this I know it’s a retelling but I feel like being a witch is kind of a step down from goddess. Also, the plot doesn’t really pick up until the last like 4 or 5 chapters of the book. I had moments where I was thinking where is this going? Not a bad one to tuck under your belt if you like the Hades and Persephone story though.

Not bad but not great

I really enjoyed this story. I'm an absolute sucker for a Hades and Persephone retelling, and this one was a hit for me. Brandon Bonavir was phenomenal; his voice captured Hades' dark allure with just the right edge of gravitas. I’m already feral with anticipation for his take on Morpheus in book 2. R.L. Hemm also brought a lovely warmth and strength to Persephone's character, and I'm excited to see how she brings Lark to life next!

Well, Hello Hades!~ 😏

Story was very tropey but still fun and made me want to keep listening. Really enjoyed the spice level, and even though the main relationship was quick, they still worked for me. Really really showed the narrators, definitely added to the book.

Great narration

This is my first ever Hades x Persephone retelling and I really enjoyed it! This was a fun listen with great story and spice. Both narrators gave a fantastic performance. Looking forward to listening to the next book hopefully soon!

These two narrators were fantastic! Their acting brought the story to life and the male narrator was incredible! Perfect blend of great plot with spice. A great listen for fans of Greek myth.
