I thought the plot flowed nicely, that the new trauma that Persephone is now dealing with was handled in a believable and emotional way. Which is strange, because as a whole, I enjoyed the book. Maybe I was angry because it’s over and the wait for the next one is a long time coming. I’ve been thinking about it for days, and I still don’t know why this book left me so angry. Turns out, I had a bunch of raving things to say about A Touch of Ruin, but I’m still a bit fuzzy on my feelings for this third book. I had to go back and read my review for A Touch of Ruin because I for sure thought I liked this third installment more. You can check out my spoiler free reviews for A Touch of Darkness and A Touch of Ruin – I’ll link them above. I’m a sucker for Hades & Persephone retellings (and Greek Mythology as a whole) so I’ve been enjoying this series so far. Nothing is certain but the promise of war. Do they allow Persephone to marry Hades and go to war with Demeter or prohibit their union and take up arms against the God of the Dead? When the Olympians intervene, Persephone finds her future in the hands of ancient gods, and they are divided. In retaliation, Demeter summons a snowstorm that cripples New Greece, and refuses to lift the blizzard unless her daughter calls off her engagement.
