Definitely enjoyed this one better than the last. The ending was so surprising but overall a good read I enjoyed it. Still absolutely love Hecate and Hermes

It is taking all that is in me right now to not immediately jump into A Touch of Chaos. The cliffhanger at the end of this and A Touch of Malice is going to make it hard to sleep tonight (it is almost midnight). In this book we get a POV from a few different characters including Theseus (who the author did a fabulous job making him a hateable character imo). I loved that we got to see more of Dionysus and Ariadne in this one as well. Along with the other typical characters. I cannot wait to read A Touch of Chaos!

"A Game of Gods" by Scarlett St. Clair offers a captivating narrative through the perspectives of Theseus, Dionysus, and Hades, providing a unique lens on the world of New Greece and the plot that we have seen develop through the other 5 books. The incorporation of various Greek myths with a personalised twist adds depth to the storyline. I particularly appreciated the exploration of Hades' character development, delving into his experience of fear, an unexpected aspect for the God of the Dead. This series provides a fresh and engaging perspective on Greek mythology.
