Love this series. This volume came together really well, it has beautiful, vibrant art and a nice pace to the story with lots of emotional moments. 

I love Artemis and I have a pet theory that she’s suffering from a crush on Persephone. That whole sequence where Persephone was needling her about “never having a crush on anyone ever in the whole history of time” and Artemis’s expression…. I ship it!

(I mean. Obviously I ship Hades and Persephone, as why would I be reading this if I didn’t. But. Ya know. Artemis having an unrequited crush would be cute and make a lot of sense for her character - especially with her hatred of Hades.)

It just keeps getting better and the art style is starting to truly advance the storyline effectively.
