A Game of Retribution (Hades x Persephone Saga Book 4)

Product Information

Someone is killing demigods, gathering weapons and instruments for killing immortals, so every Gods should take a side, The War Is Coming! A Game of Retribution was very well written by Scarlett St. Clair. I enjoyed the book, but I may have liked it even better had a read some of the previous books. Pero solo una cosa que no me gustó de este libro, o la relación de Hades y Perséfone en general, los muchos malentendidos que podrían haberse evitado en este libro si los dos tuvieran más comunicación entre ellos, porque esto también es poco saludable. PDF / EPUB File Name: A_Game_of_Retribution_-_Scarlett_St_Clair.pdf, A_Game_of_Retribution_-_Scarlett_St_Clair.epub There’s something about Scarlett’s writing that is pure addiction that I need to consume without a break. It flows beautifully, it’s all consuming, passionate, and tells a story that’s as fresh as it is well based on Greek mythology. A Game of Retribution was truly elevated in plot, writing style, connection and friendship. And I could not put this book down for one minute. Including to eat dinner.

It brings me joy each time Hecate calls Hades an idiot. She’s not wrong. I laugh every single time. Become enchanted by the fantasy world of gods and mortals in bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair's reimagined New Greece. Readers are hopelessly addicted to the story of Hades and Persephone. Plus my love for Sephy & Hermes is unbeatable too. And Hecate. They are the quad character group we all need in our lives and A Game of Retribution solidified that fact once again.

I was apprehensive going into this as it is basically A Touch of Darkness but from Hades perspective so I was unsure as to how different it would be. Would I just be reading the same book twice? The answer is not really. I love the push and pull between Hades and Persephone no matter what version of them I am reading. It's entertaining and always incredible as far as the romance goes. This series is not the exception. I gotta be honest, I’m not really interested in continuing the series… plot-wise the second book didn’t really pull me in or was able to hold my attention for long. The only reason I found myself not DNFing it was because of the characters.

But just one thing I didn’t like about this book, or Hades and Persephone’s relation in general, the tons of misunderstandings that could have been avoided in this book if the two of them had more communication between them, because this is unhealthy too. When Hera, Goddess of Women, approaches Hades with a plan to overthrow Zeus, he declines to offer help. As punishment, Hera sentences Hades to perform a series of labors. Between killing mythical monsters and recovering deadly stolen artifacts, each feat seems more impossible than the last and draws his attention away from Persephone--whose own tragedy has left her questioning whether she can be Queen of the Underworld. I loved so much about this story! Throughout the sadnesss and the anger, there was also so much love between Hades and Persephone as they worked through their respective obstacles to reach their true destiny. Intensely steamy, the fire between them reflected their all consuming love so it never seemed like too much with the sex scenes. This one is ridiculous. He legit has to go to the bathroom to rub one out. He couldn't wait a few hours till they were alone and could bang??? Good gods, he has no control.

I’ve never read a Hades and Persephone retelling before and have always been curious why people love their retelling so much… and now I DEFINITELY understand why people adore them soooo much!!! I was intrigued with this engaging romance fantasy world of gods and mortals in a fun reimagined New Greece! I love Hades. I love that current stories paint him as the misunderstood God with a bad reputation. I can't wait to see what he has to say about the next book... because from Persephone's side, I did not like it very much at all. I kept getting more and more irritated the further I read because this is NOT the Hades we all know and love. I don’t know who this imposter was, but he needs to go. So, finally I loved this book, and I gave it 4.5/5 because this world, this story and these characters are amazing. The ending was so cute and settled the basis of the war to come between gods, monsters, demigods, and mortals. And I’m ready for that.
