![]() Olympus is split into the upper city and the lower city, separated by the River Styx. And, in fact, this was one of my favorite aspects of the book (second only to the spicy scenes, of course). ![]() Neon Gods may play around with the same characters and some of the general plot points of the story, but Katee Robert has created a whole new world for her protagonists to play in. This signifies the seasons-winter when Persephone is away from Earth, and spring when she returns. Zeus eventually allows Persephone to come home, but because she ate some pomegranate seeds while in the Underworld, she must return to Hades’ domain for a few months out of the year. In the original myth, Hades kidnaps Persephone to be his wife, and in response, her mother, Demeter, refuses to let anything on earth grow until she’s returned.

I’ll admit I’m a little late to the game here. This Neon Gods book review discusses Katee Robert’s first book in her Dark Olympus series, which focuses on Hades and Persephone. ![]()
