Eeeehh!!!

I love when I start reading a book that I don't think will keep me entertained, and into the story, and it does the exact opposite. Oh, man, do I love reading this book. I'm about 176 pages through it already. So many things have already happened. I mean Cronus is trying to escape. If you don't know, he's the ultimate being, a Titan. He's also the father of Zeus, Hades, Poseidon, Demeter, Hestia, and Hera. Anyway, he's trying to escape because Calliope, a.k.a. Hera, is trying to kill Kate, our heroine, because Kate just so happens to be Henry's, Hades, wife.

Little back story: Calliope had to witness and endure her husband's (Zeus's) unfaithful ways, and she had to live with the feeling of loneliness that it brought her. She suffered and when she saw that Henry (Hades) was in a relationship with Persephone, and she was doing the same thing to him as Zeus was to her, she felt a kindred spirit. Now, Persephone finally left after falling for Adonis, and asking for her mortality back, and Calliope saw this as the perfect opportunity to try her feelings with Henry. He rejected her, threw it back in her face really, and since then has killed every girl that was in line after Persephone to take the throne of Queen of the Underworld. Calliope is obsessively in love with Henry and is in the process of trying to kill Kate, the current Queen.

I think the fact that Calliope was already loco to begin with doesn't help anything. I mean she has the rest of the original six tied down in chains, waiting for Kate to get there, seeing as she's trying to rescue them, and Calliope will kill her in front of Henry, of course we know this isn't going to happen, seeing as there is already another book, and there's too much of the book left to go. :) I love when authors put those kinds of things in a book, but you know the main character isn't going to be killed.

I'll try to have an even better review tomorrow. Enjoy.

Until next time,
