Book Review: Goddess of Death

 

I knew Callum would come for me.

I leave the treacherous underworld behind and return to life with the man I love -- finally. But when I ask him to marry me, there's a heaviness in his silence. He admits that he's kept something from me...and he finally tells me his truth.

A secret I wish he'd taken to the grave.

A secret that changes everything.

Callum had earned the respect and acceptance of everyone in my life, but then he destroys it in just the span of minutes. I'm not sure where this leaves us, but the situation only gets worse when Leviathan returns.

The God of the Underworld says if I don't return to the underworld, the covenant will destroy the portal between our realms...and everyone I love will die.


My Review

OMG. This book is bittersweet. This is because I have become so invested in the lives of Talon, Lily and Callum's stories. They are woven into each other. Without the one there is not the other. It all started with Lily's father, Talon. 

I really enjoyed getting to know Talon but then the series shifted to next generation, Lily and Callum. Lily is her father's daughter. She is just as fierce and, in a way, succeeded him as ruler. Which any parent would be proud. 

The deal that Talon striked for Callum...OMG. My heart was aching and I actually cried real tears when I read this part of the story. 

If I have to say goodbye to these characters, I will say that this series ended on a very high note. This series is amazing. Everyone will hold a special place in my heart. Penelope, you outdid yourself with this book!
