A dark Minotaur myth reimagining with mental gymnastics and verbal repartee galore! If you're looking for dark romantasy escapism, move along! 

I did enjoy the unique levels and monsters they encountered in the maze. The characters are clear parallels to their Greek counterparts but with new and interesting twists. 

May robbed us on that ending! Starting with the FMC point of view to end on the MMC point of view is just plain cheating, especially when you don't give us her take on the ending after we had to read twenty chapters of them bantering back and forth and back and forth.
