About this listen

I’ve always been able to talk to animals. Apparently, I can hear monsters, too.

Hades kidnapped me. Yeah, that Hades. Greek mythology is real, and I’m learning the gods are real dicks. I’m tasked with caring for the monsters in the Underworld. Oh, yeah, Demeter is pissed about the whole Persephone thing. She’s kidnapped her daughter and making the monsters fight for sport. Persephone is quite happy in the Underworld according to Hades pet dog...who has three heads and is kind of a goof.

I’ve met a Kraken, a minotaur, a phoenix, and a black widow spider. I’ve also met Hephaestus, the God of the Forge, who has been abused by his family.

Frankly, I’m tired of these gods thinking they can just hurt everyone. I’ve found out why I can hear animals and monsters. And I’m coming for them.

I have got to say that I prefer the written format more than the audio version. Portia Kay did an amazing job, but she was fighting a loosing battle with so many male voices to interpret. The audiobook would have been much better had Portia shared the narration with a male narrator too.
The good: I loved the idea of this series, the author's take in the Underworld, Hell, Olympus etc, was really interesting and made for a good story; The variety of monsters River had at her disposal was also intriguing and fun; Their banter was hilarious at times. And, I liked that River was quite special too. We got answers and got to see 3 different realms.
The bad: The spice was good, but it could have been better. They could have done it in monster form and be a bit more creative with the group scenes too; I couldn't get over how unappalling some of the voices were, we needed a male narrator here as well. Book 3 was a little too long and boring at times

Not as good in the audio version
