About this ebook

The vampires want liberty at any cost. The demigods want to protect the city.

Gertie has found herself an unwitting member of a vampire uprising, even though her heart is being pulled by its enemy, Hector.

How could she possibly leave Jeno, who needs her now more than ever?

The vampires have been oppressed for centuries in caves beneath the acropolis without economic resources. They've been wronged, and Gertie wants to help to liberate them.

But the vampires want liberty at any cost--even human life. Can Gertie go along with that?

This is a story that will truly be enjoyed by readers of all ages. It is an easy, light read that really packs a punch. It is well written with an inviting flow that allows readers to delve deep into the story at hand. But it is also a series that needs to be read in order for context, especially since this novel picks up right where the last one left off. The plot is well thought out and excitingly upbeat. I’ve great a great deal of work by this author in the past, & enjoyed it all, but I must say that this may just be my favourite yet. Pohler’s mix of vampires, Greek mythology, and mythology is inescapable. She draws you into her world and holds you throughout. Pohler takes actual Greek mythology as her basis and shows readers what could happen if we still believed it were true today. She also gives it a paranormal twist to take it out of this world. Pohler’s unique vampires are very well developed. I love how she keeps the general concept of blood drinking vampires and makes them all her own. She does all this with an underlying message of anti-bullying and acceptance that really sticks with you. The well-developed characters in this novel are very approachable and easy to for

OMG! I think this author is trying to kill me! This was so good! There was a big surprise at the end. And of course, a small cliffhanger but it was in a good spot. And it was so good, who’s counting as long as I have the next one RIGHT NOW lol. I have gotten so close to these characters. Some I love to hate and was happy about some things, which I’m dying to tell. I am torn between Jeno and Hector. And will Gertie ever be human again? The whole mythology with the gods is amazing. I love how it’s woven all throughout the book. We meet a lot of the gods in this one. I really liked the snake and how the S’s were hisses lol. Gertie seem to not so much go back and forth with the two guys but tries to consider their feelings equally. They are all three together throughout the book trying to save the vampires and just keep an uprise from happening. We even get to visit Hades in the underworld. If you haven’t read or listened to the first book, I suggest beginning there or you will be lost. The narrator was ok. She’s perfect at telling the story but not very good at the voices, especially the male ones. Most sound the same and mechanical like a computer. It sort of takes me from the story at times but not too bad. I think she did better in this book than the first. She does have a pleasant sounding voice though. The book is so good, I highly recommend it and the audiobook.

Ahhhhhh! This was even better than the first book. I loved it so much and can't wait to get started on book three. Btw Hector is the BEST and I totally hope he gets Gertie.
