I actually REALLY enjoyed this one.
Demetrius is a brilliant character and to find out why he's been this sullen, awkward, offhand and secretive male is actually. ...extremely surprising.
This argonaut has not one but THREE secrets and the one he's trying desperately to avoid and has the most control in is the fact that Isadora is his soul mate. Hes mabaged to nake him hate her for decades - it was the only way to be sure nothung could ever happen between them, despite what he felt. At least he thinks that's the least of his troubles...
.....after another battle with daemons he is, once again, rescuing the princess and accidentally opens a portal to somewhere oh so much worse than where he came from.
we learn of his past here. Yet it's hard to believe that the in this case the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
As a form of torture and manipulation Demetrius and Isadora are literally plonked onto a beach. Demetrius is first to wake. Isadora is unconscious with a broken leg which he first tries to fix, then tries to set about getting and making things they'll need - a shelter, tools, a ladder etc.
This is also a great book to watch the final change in Isadora as a princess due to ve queen. She has almost been 'coming out a coma' type status when it comes to her standing as queen. This shows the true beginnings of what shows who she really is.
Events on the island, which turns out to be Pandora, are clicked into place and cannot be stopped when they leave.
Demetrius tries to send the princess alone, knowing he'll be viewed as a traitor but somehow he's brought thru, beaten and sentenced to death by the Council....
even begging the king can't save him as the Council are now viewing him as too ill to make the right choice.
but Demetrius feels he has nothing to lose anyway....
....until the princess visits. ...
....until the argonauts visits. ...
this book could be the turning point. I'm really hoping the next one can carry on the pace!
