I have been on a bit of a run of books based (mostly loosely) on the Greek Gods, so the blurb for A Game of Retribution intrigued me.

I have not read the first book in the Hades series, so I admit that this may affect my feelings on book 2 a little bit.

I don't know what Hades and Persephone were like in the first book, but I will say that I really liked Hades (am I supposed to like the God of the Underworld? Probably not as much as I did haha)

I did feel that there was not really much happening for a 444 page book. Sure there is one God trying to overthrow another, blackmail and the likes, but mostly it was Hades and Persephone, who are supposed to have this big love, fighting, not communicating, and effing it out. Oh boy, do they boink it out a lot. I mean, yeah, fighting is foreplay and all that, but you still gotta talk to each other in between.

But this could just be me, and again my not reading the first book may affect this.

I did enjoy A Game of Retribution to read it all, but I don't know if I will go on and read more of the series.
