Description

Persephone Dimitriou wants to escape Olympus, a glittering city ruled by the rivalrous Thirteen Houses, but she is instead forced into an engagement with Zeus. She flees into the forbidden undercity and encounters Hades, a man she had once believed existed only in myth. Persephone bargains with him, while Hades sees the alliance as an opportunity to advance a revenge he has long pursued. What begins as a calculated arrangement develops into a passionate bond, drawing Hades into conflict with Olympus. Katee Robert’s Neon Gods follows their alliance as private desire collides with the city’s competing powers.
