*I was on the street launch team for this book and these opinions are all my own.*

This book is the exciting second story that takes place right where Wings of Fury ends. Althea/Hera and her sisters now need to get a plan together to defeat the God of God's father Cronus. Cronus has vowed to gather up the Titans and Gods of old to take down the mortal world to its knees. Hera must find her brothers, even going into the underworld to get Hades, to have a chance at saving Earth.

I love that Hera shows us that we don't have to be burdened down by our birthright, we can be the people we want to be. Theo helped show that when you love someone so much, you want what they want and will sacrifice anything to achieve it. Zeus is still the petulant God that his father hid away....I didn't like who he becomes in the end.

I really like Hades in this story. He was just not what I've come to expect from other stories and myths. He was kind and did what he needed to do to help Hera.
