Not much of a retelling.

So this was overall enjoyable, but if you're thinking of reading it due to being touted as a "retelling" of Greek myths with some spice sprinkled through, just skip it. The names and the places are the only part that really have to do with Greek mythology. This could have easily just been skinned over with a different world and felt the same. Even the power struggles are pretty minute. Definitely over-hyped, but I've read worse. I'll be continuing with some of the books just to see how they measure up.

Not the best, but not bad

A little bit cringey/cliche at some parts, but I really enjoyed the world the author built and the new take on the Hades/Persephone myth. Very interesting, but could’ve done with a little more character development and a little less cliche. Wish it was longer so the author would have more pages for the main conflict.
