For a book that is said to be “spicy” I didn’t find the spice in this to be realistic or good at all. I love how, although the story has subtle nods to the original myths and tales, Alderson makes it his own. This is my first time reading this author and while I enjoyed the story overall (it ticks off a lot of my favorite things) I was a little underwhelmed.

One for the author, two for the cool idea, three for being same-gender Hades and Persephone retelling and four for this amazing, beautiful, AWESOME cover. Like thats fine i guess but it seems like it was the same thing everytime and there wasnt much meaningful conversations as i would like. I loved the first book in the series so much that I've re-read it, which is rare for me, so I was hotly anticipating the next in the series. With the amount of time the author put into us liking Myrinn, the betrayal at the end just felt cheap. It should have been a little less pointless descriptions and trying too hard to be a legit fantasy and more of improving the building of the emotional climaxes and the quality of the sex scenes (I'm usually not looking into that much but since I'm at it, why not mention this too).Faenir, the most revered of the elves, is known for one thing: one touch against anyones skin, and they will be unalived.

The strange yearning and eventual understanding of Arlo and Faenir is one of my favorite book ships and to watch it all unfold so beautifully was quite an experience.

Vi en una reseña de una estrella que decía algo como "ugh, that's too gay", y debo decir que ese es el punto. The ending of King wasn't that bad but only because I already knew what would happen (well, not the last chapter 35 obviously).I would give this cover one million and five stars if I could, but since I'm rating a book and not its cover, I'm giving it 3 stars, as the real one is a half less. This jarred me so badly that I had to go back and make sure that I didn't miss a portion of the book.

I love me a good retelling of Persephone and Hades and though it started out strong, I feel like the end was rushed and a bit of a let down. I love that King of Immortal Tithe was it’s own story while still being a part of the Darkmourn universe, it was really cool to hear Arlo’s thoughts about the vampire plague and learn about how much things have changed in the large span of time since the end of Lord of Eternal Night.Zdecydowanie trafi do czytelników, którzy w tym gatunku się już rozsiedli, i którzy lubią pewne typowe dla niego tropy. Arlo hated Faenir as much as any captive would his captor, which I expect (and love) to see, but then he instantly forgives and starts to love him after hearing his tragic life story.

All it took for Arlo to actually throw himself into Faenir's arms was Myrinn telling him about why the queen hated Faenir. Ben lives in Oxfordshire and, when not writing, can be found reading, taking Winston - his Labrador - out for long walks, or obsessing over Marvel’s The Scarlet Witch. You truly feel a part of the story while reading it and I was always wanting to go back and continue reading whenever I put it down. From the bestselling author Ben Alderson comes a fantastical and spicy reimagining of the Hades and Persephone tale.Arlo finds himself tangled in a web of secrecy, family politics, and unbridled magic when he comes face to face with the impending doom .
