Penelope versus the Underworld. What could possibly go wrong?
I raced through this book. I really enjoyed it. It’s full of action, battles and sexual tension. I love the world building in this story. It’s good to see a new take on the Greek Underworld.
This is the second book in this Paranormal Romance Greek Mythology series, from authors HP Mallory and JR Rain writing as Mallory Rain. As the genre would suggest, this series is set in the Greek underworld and is filled with duplicitous and vengeful gods and goddesses. There are descriptive scenes of a sexual nature. There are also descriptive fight and battle scenes.
Penelope, the 250 year old daughter of Aphrodite, is a demigoddess known for her beauty. She’s not a natural fighter at all, so continuing her mission through five gates of the Underworld to rescue the soul of the woman she considers to be her sister seems like a fool’s errand. She could actually die here herself. Or she could learn to fight and overcome her obstacles.
In order to get to the second gate, she must first vanquish the usurper, Azrhea, and return the first gate to its original ruler. Easier said than done.
If you love Greek mythology and enjoy a good romance in the context of that setting, this is a series you should read.
