Thank you Net Galley and Bonnier Books UK for giving me an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Firstly, the cover is absolutely gorgeous.
I really loved this book as Deira is an incredibly lovable, strong and driven protagonist which makes reading this book so easy. The characters are very well written, with even the side-characters having such complexities to them. I am a massive fan of mythology, so a book about Greek Mythology was instantly going to be a yes from me. The world created in this book is also very well written, and it made it so easy to picture it. I also loved the tone of the book and it was set in the perfect pace for the plot - not too fast but not too slow. A gorgeous YA novel - such fun to read.
For fans of: Lore by Alexandra Bracken, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo, and obviously Percy Jackson or The Trials of Apollo by Rick Riordan.
