Oh Katee. I’m on this wild ass ride with you that is loosely Greek mythology but mostly sex and kink. I’m fascinated. I can’t look away. But I don’t know if that means I’d recommend it. But I’m going to keep going on this ride to see how it ends at this point.

Eurydice finally gets her story told in the Dark Olympus saga. She's fled the upper city of Olympus to nurse her wounds with Charon, Hades' second in command. She's forgotten about Orpheus and ready to move on until Charon goes and invites Oroheus to the lower city, because reasons. In the mean time the secret nemesis behind the assassinations of the 13 is revealed and tries to draw out Hades.
It took me a minute to get into the story because Robert's characters all sound so vapid and similar. The bedroom scenes were kind of spicy but over all this threesome wasn't that memorable or unique.

'Midnight Ruin" honestly was such a fantastic, spicy read! I went in not realizing what the relationship dynamic for this one was and was honestly very happily surprised with it. I have recently read a few other poly, MMF relationship stories and absolutely loved reading this relationship dynamic represented on the page in such a healthy way. It felt so natural to see the way our three MCs were drawn to each other, too. Oooh and the kink play was well done! Love the way Katee writes kink in books in such a safe, approachable way.
I will say... this is only the second book in the Dark Olympus series that I've read thus far (I know, I've gotta catch up!!) But it has officially converted me and I will now be reading the entire lot of them (past and future books to come). The other book in the series I had read prior to this one was "Neon Gods," so this was actually in so many ways the perfect follow up read for me since I had already met Eurydice, Orpheus and Charon as characters in that book. Of course, I missed a good year of the overarching political plot, so it's harder for me to comment on how well the plot progressed in comparison to other books in the series. However, I will say that it didn't significantly affect my reading experience to have not read the four books in between so it was a solid stand-alone read for me in most ways.
I also have to shoutout the audiobook narrators, Zara Hampton-Brown & Alex Moorcock, because I think they did a FANTASTIC job! I'm grateful to have received this book in this format because that's how I read "Neon Gods" originally, as well. I was happily surprised to hear familiar voices for this book too, but was also impressed that the VAs did such a commendable job with changing the the characters voices from Hades/Persephone to Orpheus/Charon/Eurydice. Each felt distinct with their own flair and personality shown through.
Overall, had a great time reading this installment in the Dark Olympus series! Can't wait to back and catch up on the other books already currently out in the series, as well as future books from Katee.
