I never wanted to be
anything less than extraordinary.
I was the daughter
of the King of the Gods-
A goddess in my own right.
And yet you looked at me
and saw a little girl held captive.
I am no captive.
I am no springtime.
I am Persephone
and when you are dead
I shall be your Queen.
|| Author's Note ||
And so we've arrived. This second half of Kore's story is something I have been so excited to get to- and it's going to be a wild ride. For my new readers, please be sure you read the first book in this series, Kore.
The following tale is a story of a girl growing into her power. We will no longer see Kore, the Goddess of Spring, but Persephone the Destroyer, Queen of the Underworld.
In all the books of the Women of Olympus series, I will be taking some privilege in going outside of the typical myths and legends, in some cases completely fabricating events and details, so if you're looking for a 100% accurate retelling of the legends, this is not the book for you. I do hope you'll enjoy it nonetheless- it's a labor of love for me. ❤️
And on a warm note, I want to give a huge thank you to my returning readers. Your comments and encouragement mean more to me than you'll ever understand. Having this book be successful has been a dream, and I am thrilled to get to continue this journey with you.
Also, please note that this book is currently a first draft, unedited, and not reviewed closely- this includes all attached media, such as videos or pictures. I adore constructive criticism and need YOUR help to make this book the very best it can be- so fire away your questions, comments, concerns, and advice. Thank you again for your read!
