"IN THE DARKNESS,
two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun."

It's a happy ending but WHY I'M CRYING , the plot was great , highly rec, this is definitely a book I will keep on my shelves.

God, what a ride. All the threads of the classic mythos, rewove masterfully into a unique fabric of a tale. I would recommend this to anyone, interested in mythology or not.
