A Game of Retribution

Become enchanted by the fantasy world of gods and mortals in bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair's reimagined New Greece. Readers are "hopelessly addicted" to the story of Hades and Persephone.

Hades, God of the Dead, does not take sides or bend the rules. He makes no exceptions to these values—not for god or mortal, even his lover, Persephone, Goddess of Spring.

Usually, fear prevents retaliation.

But not this time.

When Hera, Goddess of Women, approaches Hades with a plan to overthrow Zeus, he declines to offer help. As punishment, Hera sentences Hades to perform a series of labors. Between killing mythical monsters and recovering deadly stolen artifacts, each feat seems more impossible than the last and draws his attention away from Persephone—whose own tragedy has left her questioning whether she can be Queen of the Underworld.

Can Hades maintain the balance he craves?

      St. Clair returns to Olympus with this emotionally charged but frustrating second Hades Saga romance (after A Game of Fate), an exploration of love’s resilience and the complexities godly hierarchy. Hades, King of the Underworld, hopes to marry Persephone and make her his queen, but when he refuses to help Hera, Goddess of Marriage, overthrow Zeus, she interferes with his plans. Hera assigns Hades a series of labors, and only once all are completed will Hera agree to bless the couple’s union. The tasks drive a wedge between Hades and Persephone, as—unfamiliar with her roles as both a new goddess and a lover—Persephone struggles to stay committed to the relationship. Meanwhile, tempers flare among the gods in the wake of a murder and Hades must put the killer to justice before Olympus boils over into war. The intrigue is gripping and St. Clair masterfully balances humorous banter and heat between the central couple, but Persephone comes across as stubborn, self-centered, and immature, and readers will struggle with her choices. Series fans and new readers alike will be invested in the godly politics but will have to be patient to see this couple at their best.
