Comparing Hades And Persephone, A Court Of Thorns And Roses

"To the people who look up at the stars and wish."
"To the stars who listen - and the dreams that are answered."
Painted in shades of the classic myth, Hades and Persephone, A Court of Mist and Fury shines high above its predecessor, A Court of Thorns and Roses. This is an incredibly unique fantasy book.

She flourishes under Rhys’ guiding hand and comes to respect him for the things he has done to save her.
