The Taking of Persephone Series : Kore

Discover the BookTok sensationKore, a lush romantasy retelling of the myth of Persephone and Hades as the original grumpy/sunshine pairing, perfect for fans of Lore Olympus.

Before the Goddess of the Underworld, before the Dread Queen, there was Kore.

Kore, the youngest daughter of Demeter, is caught between two worlds. Her mother teaches duty and secrecy, hiding her powers away from the other gods. But as Kore grows into her power, she finds solace and freedom in visits from the feared and hated King of the Dead, her Aidoneus. When the struggles of Olympus threaten the tenous balance of her world, Kore flees to the Underworld in search of sanctuary.

When her journey turns into a fight for survival facing monstrous shades and vengeful gods, Kore also discovers that the underworld is full of wonderous possibility. Can she break through the dark and reach the heart of its King?

He claims there is no place for love among the dead.
She is determined to prove him wrong.

    They do not speak of her rage when she would pull rain from the clouds and the flowers beneath her feet turned black. They do not speak of how she laughed when Icarus fell from the sky in a golden plume. They do not speak of how she grew flowers because she enjoyed watching them fade and die. They do not speak of how she pounded at the gates of Hell until they opened or how she let the pomegranate juice drip from her smiling lips. Or how even Hades trembled under her gaze.
