Melany's story came to an end in this book. You enter the book not knowing which guy she is going to choose; Lucian or Hades. Elisa and Keira clear that debate up. You also get some more action and heat. I love the end of melany's story.

A fight against the gods. So much action and drama. Great story. Even better characters. I love this series so much

Easy quick read. Love triangle and immaturity of main character was frustrating. Battle scene at the end seemed rushed and confusing.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? It's complicated

Wow the way this ended wasn't a surprise, but the battle was insane. I knew Ares and Aphrodite were in on it, but Zeus wasn't a surprise since it always seems he's hungry for power in every book. I'm not sure I like the storyline of Hades sleeping with Melany. I'm not sure it was necessary, but I do like their camaraderie. I'm heart broken at some of the deaths. Revanna especially. She changed in an instant and choose melany and her death was so hard on Melany. I think that's why it made it so hard. I also like the twist that the Titans weren't actually bad and Prometheus took back as headmaster to the school. It's sad that Lucien, Georgina, and Ren losing their powers, but it's good that they don't resent melany. She fought so hard. I want to know if she'll talk to her parents again and if Persephone will come back to Hades.

Demigods Academy: Year Three is the third book in Elisa S. Amore and Kiera Legend’s Demigods series. In this book, the truth comes fully to light as to what is going on at the Academy and the battle that has been waged in the shadows comes to the forefront and a head.
When I first started reading Demigods Academy I was hooked. I loved the variety of the characters and how the authors gave us some of the mythical characters that are usually declared evil and gave them a new twist from the norm. This book continues in that vein which I like and approve of. The authors continue to develop Melany’s relationship with Hades and Lucian. Melany is changing, but she’s not the only one. There is something strange going on with her friends. But war is coming, and there are some truths that Melany needs to learn before it’s too late. The storyline overall is well written and engaging and kept me page-turning to learn what was going to happen next. There is a nice element of mystery woven into this story during certain scenes to help push the story along a little faster in some places.
This book has its good aspects and then it has it’s negative ones as well. For me – the negatives are Melany’s attitude and behavior…especially towards Hades. She flip flops between being a love-sick teenager – wanting his attention, wanting him, and trying to make him jealous or wanting him to be jealous of Lucian, and a petulant child when she doesn’t get her way when it comes to him or the other gods. I like sassy characters, but Melany really pushed the envelope at times to the point of where she was endangering her life because she wanted to mouth off. There were moments of where I understood to an extent, but others I just felt that she wanted to act like a brat and behave like she’s entitled to make demands.
Another issue I had with the storyline itself is the build-up to the “epic battle.” The build-up was there, but when the actual moment came…it fell flat like a deflated balloon. I was expecting at least a couple of chapters dedicated to an epic fight, a major battle scene… and I didn’t get it. I felt disappointed that there wasn’t more to it. I honestly hate to say it, but it felt like the authors lost steam when they hit this point in the storyline because this is what everything has been leading to…and it for me, doesn’t measure up to the build. There are also a couple of scenes/situations with certain characters that I felt were glossed over. Instead of us getting to the root of what was going on we get “we’re okay now, it’s all good.” I kinda felt robbed. LOL!
All in all, I am rating this book 4 out of 5 stars. The storyline overall is good, but it has it’s pitfalls that, for me, were a bit hard to ignore. My expectations were built up and then were made to fall flat on its face. The other books were thrilling and gripping, and which causes this book to feel like it was phoned in towards the end. If you enjoyed the first two books in this series, then I encourage you to read this book, but I suggest you go in with moderate expectations this time around. Regardless, I look forward to reading more from these two authors in the future.
