Told in multiple POVs, A Game of Gods is the final installment in the Hades Saga by USA Today Bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair.
Hades, God of the Dead, has finally made Persephone his in every way possible. With their wedding on the horizon, the couple should be ecstatic. But Demeter is wreaking havoc on their bliss by battering the whole of New Greece with erratic and dangerous weather. At the same time, Theseus continues with his agenda against the Gods, allying with the hate-group Triad in an effort to bring down all of Olympus.
Hades refuses to allow anything to stop him from securing Persephone as his bride, but he must play a deep strategic game with the Gods of Olympus to safeguard their future. And it is not entirely clear which Gods are truly on his side.
My Review:
I had such a great time reading this book! This is maybe the last time we'll have Hades' perspective (maybe it'll be in Chaos, but I don't know yet) and boy, was it such a great story, I had such a great time following along!
I wasn't sure with this book, if it was going to cover the same time as Malice, or maybe go into the time of Chaos. But it's just Malice, and boy, does a lot happen! Especially since we got Dionysus's perspective, and his story with Ariadne.
The big thing in this book was kinda the same things as Malice, the storm and the Triad, but this book in particular focused on a mythical beast that, when the Olympians overthrew the Titans, was part of the reason that they won. And now it's back. So that was a decent part of this book.
Honestly, the ending was a bit hard for me to read. Not because it was bad, but that it was pushing one of my buttons, of captivity, and I knew it was coming from the end of Malice. So that was a bit difficult for me. But I got through it and now just have to wait to see how it all resolves in Chaos!
Loved reading this book and I can't wait to finish out Hades and Persephone's story!
