The gods live amongst the mortals, grasping for what little of their divinity remains. It had great potential wrt characters and the plot, the kind of scenes I love, really good writing style that compliments the themes discussed, and finally a character I adore aka Dio and Ari (Not to forget the Cat !) Definitely puck it up if you love Mythology and Fantasy ! Overall, I will definitely say this book was really good, and I’m all for it. That ending was really well done as well! The story was addictive and I finished it in a single setting! And especially a scene where thery talked about food and eating food knowing the history of it? I got hungry.

Like launching websites, travelling through the city traffic. I especially enjoyed the modern things that the Gods did. It was quirky and witty at times while maintaining the theme of the plot aka adventure with some emotional aspect. I loved Dio and Ari and their messages !Ĭoming to the writing style and the plotline, I really liked the writing and it complimented the story as well. I really liked Dio as a character and his thought process. The characters were familiar because we’ve read about the Greek Mythology a lot and the plot gave way for something different. The concept of Gods existing in the current world was good. It started off really well and I especially liked his introduction and the chapters leading to his adventure. The book follows our main character Dio who is the estranged son of Zeus tasked to find his father in Earth. Tell me you do not want to read this book after this ! It’s a perfect mix of familiar characters and unfamiliar surroundings which made for an amazing combination and story ! Thank you MTMC Tours for the gifted review copy!
