This was an interesting start to the series. A friend of mine is a big fan, so I wanted to give it a try. I enjoyed the story for the most part, though it was slow in some parts.

I am super uncomfortable with Apollo's actions and Persephone's desire to hide the fact he raped her. His pushiness after he apologized earlier on in the book for his attitude makes his whole character feel disingenuous. Artemis is going to be heartbroken that her brother could do something like that, but it could make a good foil for Hades when it comes out. He's misjudged pretty terribly. Apollo is supposed to be one of the good guys. I'm so angry about it, it almost makes me need to read the second volume.

Not the best graphic novel I've ever read, but very much not the worst.
