Merissa (11661 KP) rated Divine Ecstasy (Guardians of the Realms #8) in Books
May 26, 2023
Sacha is the second female to get her mate (Brianne and Vane) and she gets a fully-fledged God in Hades. She is lying in a coma when he realises, so he does the only thing a God can do, and wakes her up! Drake is none too chuffed with this turn of events and it is down to P to try and explain the importance of why Sacha needs to choose for herself.
Can I just say, I loved Hades! Even since I watched Disney's Hercules with my daughters, I couldn't help but see Hades like this in my mind! Let me just say though, that Setta Jay's Hades is nothing like this! He is gorgeous, caring, proactive, and yes, just a little bit arrogant. He is a God though, so give him a break.
Sacha and Hades make the perfect couple. He is understanding of her and tries to help with her recovery. Sacha rounds Hades out and smooths his arrogant edges. Love them.
Hot, sexy, funny, action-packed - Divine Ecstasy is a fantastic addition to the Guardians of the Realms series, and I can't wait for P's book and Sirena's!!!

David McK (3188 KP) rated Hell Hath No Fury: A Montague & Strong Detective Novel in Books
Apr 11, 2019
Orlando A. Sanchez is fairly churning these e-books out and, In my opinion at least, it's beginning to show.
Book #8 in the 'Montague and Strong detective' series, in which Hades (yes, that Hades) wife Persephone has been kidnapped. Tristan Montague and Simon Strong (and Peaches the hellhound, of course!) are hired to investigate that disappearance, leading to the usual mayhem and large-scale destruction of public property.

Gareth von Kallenbach (965 KP) rated Escape Plan 2: Hades (2018) in Movies
Jun 19, 2019
Following up “Escape Plan”; Lionsgate and Sylvester Stallone have teamed up for “Escape Plan 2: Hades”. This time around Dave Bautista is teamed with Stallone as security expert Ray Breslin (Stallone), is trying to find a locale known as “HADES” where one of his top operatives Shu Ren (Xiaoming Huang), has become an inmate.
Life in the high-tech Hades is harsh as inmates are matches up to fight one another and the place appears to be escape proof.
In a race against time, Breslin must find out all he can about HADES and find a way into the prison in order to break out with his man before it is too late.
The film has good production values for a home video release. It may not have the grand scope of the previous film but it does have enough elements to entertain. I would have liked a bit more screen time for Bautista and Stallone but with a third film already reportedly shot, it would be great to see where the series goes next.
For now, the film despite some flaws is entertaining enough for fans of the original and does make for some decent viewing at home as long as you set reasonable expectations.

ClareR (5571 KP) rated Wonder Woman, Vol 2: Guts in Books
Nov 15, 2017
My new favourite superhero!!
Wonder Woman continues to try and protect Zola and her baby, but Zola is kidnapped by Hades (Cake-Head?). The price of Zola's Liberty is marriage between Hades and Diana. Of course. There are lots of twists and turns, Hera gets involved again (of course), various things backfire and we're left on another cliffhanger at the end - all ready for volume 3!!
I'm enjoying these, and will probably have at least the next 2 volumes on my Christmas list!

Hades is Mine: Rise of Hades ( Gods and Monsters book 4)
By Mila Young
Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments
I am a Legend. Born to fight Death itself. Sworn to act as Zeus' thunderbolt against the darkness.
And now I'm mortal.
Despite having Apollo, Poseidon, and Ares by my side I lost. I don't have any second chances. Ares trained me to be a stronger warrior, Poseidon taught me to be the wisest leader, and Apollo showed me passion to be a glorious champion. Each of them has entrusted me with their hearts, and I have given them mine as well.
And it's still not enough.
I need to convince Hades, Ruler of the Underworld, to help me. With his aid we stand the smallest chance, the slimmest of hopes. He's one hot mess of a God and the closer we get the further he pulls away, and the more it tears me apart. But I need to win him to my side, to our side, and make this brooding loner deity a team player too.
Can I even trust Hades with my heart, when I have already lost my soul to something darker?
This book was an emotional rollercoaster!! You know it’s a good book when you get that gasping and aching feeling that you can’t wait to see what’s written on the next page! Hades needed a slap for 3 quarters of the book. It was just a brilliant ending to such a good series. Mila Young has become one of my favourite indie authors and this series has me wanting to read so much more of her work. If you love Greek Gods and you love a bit of spice and spice done well I highly recommend this series. Just brilliant!
