WHAT IF IMMORTALITY ISN’T FOREVER?

KATE WINTERS HAS WON IMMORTALITY.

BUT IF SHE WANTS A LIFE WITH HENRY IN THE UNDERWORLD, SHE’LL HAVE TO FIGHT FOR IT.

Becoming immortal wasn’t supposed to be the easy part. Though Kate is about to be crowned Queen of the Underworld, she’s as isolated as ever. And despite her growing love for Henry, ruler of the Underworld, he’s becoming ever more distant and secretive. Then, in the midst of Kate’s coronation, Henry is abducted by the only being powerful enough to kill him: the King of the Titans.

As the other gods prepare for a war that could end them all, it is up to Kate to save Henry from the depths of Tartarus. But in order to navigate the endless caverns of the Underworld, Kate must enlist the help of the one
person who is the greatest threat to her future.

Henry’s first wife, Persephone.

Review: WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM BOOK 1 (The Goddess Test review, click here)

Heartbreaking and thrilling, Goddess Interrupted is definitely the must-read sequel of the year! You won’t want to miss it! The story is spectacular and the mythology is recognizable yet completely original. I couldn’t bring myself to put it down.

Calliope has returned to attack the entire council and this time she’s getting back up. Carter has upped the suspense by introducing the only being able to kill the gods… A Titan! Now, the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been, and Kate may lose her new family and maybe herself.  But her attempts to help the people she loves have consequences and when Persephone’s return may destroy the life Kate is fighting so hard to protect.

I completely empathized with Kate and at times just wanted to break down and cry with her. The pain and heartache she goes through in this follow-up is intense and her distress surpasses everything she went through in Book 1.  But while Kate is falling apart inside, her selfless determination to save those around her is inspiring. And when she appears to have given up, she comes back fighting harder than ever. Facing heartbreak, death, and a betrayal she could never have imagined can’t stop this fantastically written heroine from superseding every expectation set in The Goddess Test.
