About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

To hell with love, this goddess has other plans...

Thousands of years ago, the gods told a lie: how Persephone was a pawn in the politics of other gods. How Hades kidnapped Persephone to be his bride. How her mother, Demeter, was so distraught she caused the Earth to start dying.

The real story is much more interesting.

Persephone wasn't taken to hell: she jumped. There was no way she was going to be married off to some smug god more in love with himself than her.

Now all she has to do is convince the Underworld's annoyingly sexy, arrogant and frankly rude ruler, Hades, to fall in line with her plan. A plan that will shake Mount Olympus to its very core.

But consequences can be deadly, especially when you're already in hell...

Beautiful story well written and captivating. Strong and powerful. The power of women with no apologies for it. Highly recommend.

Powerful

Well that was just stunning!! I absolutely loved Persephone’s journey and development, her relationship with Hades and how she finds her strength and power, but refuses to continue the cycle of violence and murder. I absolutely loved the portrayal of Hades as a sensitive and artistic sole, who is thrust into a position of authority he never wanted. Their love is inspiring and heartwarming. I cannot recommend enough!!!

A thrilling story with just the right amount of love and humour. An interesting look into the roles we play in society wrapped up in an exciting tale of magic, romance and mythology.
Beautifully and evocatively narrated by Jenny Walser. Never was there a dull moment thanks to her understanding of the tone.
Loved it all!

A New Favourite

Absolutely loved this book! I may now have to buy the physical copy as a trophy I loved it that much.
The story was so thought out and unexpected. I usually guess what’s going to happen in a book but this one I was completely immersed the whole way through and had no guesses just simply enjoyed listening. I feel like there needs to be a 2nd book to explore the way the story ended which I think would be an amazing read but I heard it’s supposedly a stand alone which is very disappointing.
Performance 10/10 although I did listen to the whole thing at 3x speed so be aware it’s quite a slow pace of talking.
10/10 would recommend!
