A dark fantasy, Greek Mythology reimagining of the infamous Hades and Persephone myth in a world filled with magic, prophecies, and swoon-worthy bantering romance.
Kore
As a non-believer in a town ruled by believers,
Kore has fought to follow the rules, to stay
hidden in the shadows, to be a rose in a simple
garden, but all her attempts at living a simple
quiet life are turned upside down when the night
of the sacrifice, the night of Hades, leads her to
the Underworld and making a deal with the
King of the dead himself.
Faced with betrayal, curses, and romances,
twisted in the web of prophecies, Kore must
not only find a way to survive this new land
and play Hades games, but learn to become
the very thing she never believed in, a
Goddess.
Dora
As a believer and training priestess,
worshipping the Gods has always come easy to
Dora, and so has keeping secrets-like what
really happened five years ago. But on the
night of Hades, Dora's hidden abilities cause
the annual sacrifice to go awry and Kore to
disappear. To save her friend, Dora must
befriend an unlikely God who will also do
whatever it takes to find Kore, but Dora's
abilities have shown her that this God
shouldn't be completely trusted. Finding her
life intertwined in the game of Gods to save
her friend, Dora must not only outrun death
and capture at every turn, but face temptations
and truths that shatter her reality, Gods are
cruel.
