Book: Of Prophecies & Pomegranates: A Dark Fates Novel by T.C. Kraven
Reviewed by Enchanted Owl
Rating: 5/5
Of Prophecies and Pomegranates is the first book in the Dark Fates series. If you enjoyed Scarlett St. Clair’s Hades x Persephone’s series, well you’ll love this one as well.
Welcome back to the Underworld with another retelling of Hades and Persephone. I don’t know exactly why, but every time I see a book summary that has to do with this dynamic couple, it’s an automatic must read/listen. This audiobook has four narrators (Shane East, Victoria Aston, John Hartley, James Joseph) and all do a fantabulous job with this one. There were some longer pauses between scenes that at first seemed too much, but I quickly didn’t notice it anymore after I was invested. When I first seen I got the approval for the audio(about 11PM), I started it IMMEDIATELY, I was super pumped and wanted to see how it would be, those “one more chapter” moments got me, by the time sleep finally hit me I was 75% through the audio. I just couldn’t get enough of this version. I finished it the next day. I’ve listened to it 2 other times as well, and currently listening to it as I write this. (Some might suggest I’m a little obsessed with it or the Hades and Persephone saga in general)
This one starts off with some background from Kronos to “present” day. The way the author gives Hades and Hecate that close knit relationship was perfection, I throughly enjoyed that aspect. I will keep an eye out for the rest of the books in this series, especially the audiobooks. Fully recommend this book!
