Book Review: The Power of Hades

The Power of Hades by Eliza Raine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yes Yes Yes!! This a great quick read fantasy book! I’ve already moved onto the second book before writing this, because I couldn’t take the time to stop and review this one. I had to start reading the next one now!

Knowing a little Greek mythology might help you in this book, but it’s not necessary, because Persephone (the leading female) doesn’t remember her own history. So, we’re all learning the history together.

In this book, Persephone (Persy), is a human living a normal life in New York, when she’s abducted by Zeus and taken to the Underworld. There, she’s forced to compete to be Hades bride. However, she quickly finds out she was previously a powerful and feared goddess who was married to Hades. In order to live, she must compete in the trials against gods and demigods who all have powers, while she’s still a human.

There’s a fair amount of grammar mistakes throughout this book, but there aren’t enough to detract from the overall book. It’s been a while since I’ve read a book with this many though, so I feel like it’s worth mentioning in case you’re put off by that.

There aren’t any sex scenes, but there are a few scenes that start to look like they’re heading in that direction. Maybe in some future books there will be some? It doesn’t really need them, the plot and writing is great on it’s own.

Overall, this is a fantastic book! Kudos to the authors! If you’re a fantasy reader, definitely consider adding this to your must read list. Happy reading y’all!
