A Game of Retribution

By Scarlett St. Clair
A Game of Retribution by Scarlett St. Clair digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

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.

Hades, God of the Dead, does not take sides or bend the rules. He makes no exceptions to these values—not for god or mortal, even his lover, Persephone, Goddess of Spring.

Usually, fear prevents retaliation.

But not this time.

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.

Can Hades maintain the balance he craves?

“While this is not my favorite entry into this series that I have read so far, I do appreciate how much the author has clearly researched and thought deeply about the mythology. The myth of Hades and Persephone is DEEPLY problematic in many ways, and I really worried that a “spicy” retelling of their myth would be problematic too but I’ve been pleasantly surprised with this series. A fun, modern and inventive sexy take on ancient myth!”
