I kept getting more and more irritated the further I read because this is NOT the Hades we all know and love. I don’t know who this imposter was, but he needs to go. I'm not asking you to be a queen. I'm asking you to be yourself. I'm asking you to marry me. The title comes with our marriage. It changes nothing." Hera, Goddess of Women, wanted Hades to help overthrow Zeus. When he refused, she punished him by requiring him to successfully complete a series of seemingly impossible labors intended to sabotage his relationship with Persephone. My hopes for book three of this series are that there will be minimal overlapping scenes. I only want to read about Hades's shenanigans, please and thank you. I gotta be honest, I’m not really interested in continuing the series… plot-wise the second book didn’t really pull me in or was able to hold my attention for long. The only reason I found myself not DNFing it was because of the characters.

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. A Game of Retribution, the second book of the Hades Saga, follows the story of Hades, God of the Dead, and Persephone, Goddess of Spring, the woman he loved, as they defied the odds to find a future together, one that had been predetermined by the Fates yet remained uncertain. Discover the world of New Greece in the first book of Scarlett St. Clair’s bestselling Hades x Persephone series, a dark and sexy reimagining of the Hades and Persephone Greek myth. He did not like to be reminded of his mistakes, though those closest to him—in particular in particular Hecate, Goddess of Witchcraft and Magic—reveled in reminding him that he was very much fallible. So, finally I loved this book, and I gave it 4.5/5 because this world, this story and these characters are amazing. The ending was so cute and settled the basis of the war to come between gods, monsters, demigods, and mortals. And I’m ready for that.The pro (note the singular), this is probably the first book in this series that hasn’t been full of mistakes and errors so I guess that’s a plus. Mientras tanto, una antigua reliquia está perdida, un grupo de rebeldes llamado Impious está listo para ganar algo de poder y muchos secretos se mantienen en las sombras. Esta es la trama principal de esta historia y dioses, me encantó, la angustia, la intriga, las vibras de la mafia, esta forma de refrescar los mitos antiguos en este mundo moderno es increíble. Al igual que con el punto de vista de Perséfone, este mundo es asombroso, lleno de diminutos easter eggs de otros mitos que eventualmente tienen sentido para la trama. Este libro tiene una trama inteligente, mucho desarrollo de personajes y una historia muy buena. Con estos libros, prefiero el punto de vista de Hades porque son más oscuros que el de Perséfone, pero su historia también es increíble y leer lo que estaba pasando con Hades durante A touch of Ruin cuando estaba fuera de las páginas fue realmente interesante, aquí sabemos por qué está actuando de la manera que lo hizo y entendendemos muchas cosas.

But just one thing I didn’t like about this book, or Hades and Persephone’s relation in general, the tons of misunderstandings that could have been avoided in this book if the two of them had more communication between them, because this is unhealthy too. Perhaps most significantly throughout the evolving character development, this story highlighted the importance of unconditional love and trust at the core of any relationship.

Hera made Hades perform a series of labors in exchange for blessing his marriage! A Game of Retribution was very well written by Scarlett St. Clair. I enjoyed the book, but I may have liked it even better had a read some of the previous books. A Game of Retribution by Scarlett St. Clair is the 2nd book in her Hades Saga series. I have read this author recently and loved her latest, but have not read her Hades or Persephone series. A Game of Retribution, which is based on Greek mythology, did read well, as St. Clair manages to give us enough information to understand. In A Game of Retribution, Hades is the main lead in this story, as it was in his POV; the story does revolve around Hades and Persephone No Persephone (and Scarlett St Clair), it’s not. So why do 90% of the times these characters interact result in sex. They know nothing about each other and never have a deep or meaningful conversation. Yet we are supposed to believe that they love each other in this great romance. A simple conversation or ounce of common sense from either of them would have saved us from having to read so much of the stupid arguments that they have.

Pero solo una cosa que no me gustó de este libro, o la relación de Hades y Perséfone en general, los muchos malentendidos que podrían haberse evitado en este libro si los dos tuvieran más comunicación entre ellos, porque esto también es poco saludable.
