Book: Daughter of the Underworld
Author: Jenn Lynn Adams
Publication Date: 14th February 2023
Book 7 Of The Year
This book is everything I imagined for a Greek underworld book. I love the way that Jenn has written this book, her descriptions are phenomenal and I felt like I was actually a part of the book. Personally I would recommend this book to 18+ due to the nature of this book and it's triggers, as a pre-warning some triggers include Sexual Assault, Rape, Forced Marriage, Swearing, Graphic Violence, Sex, Thoughts of murder and animals in pain. I enjoyed this book and loved how it was written but for me at some points it was a little heavy at times and I had to put it down and then come back to it (Please don't let this put you off reading it, this is just my opinion and thoughts).
I loved the different points of view each chapter between Melinoe, Castor and Hecate, it really gives you a insight into what they are seeing and feeling. This ties in nicely with the flashbacks that we see later on in the book, these also fill in a lot of blanks which makes you go "Oh yeah, that makes sense". The power that the women have in this book is something that wouldn't have been seen in the Greek times and it is fantastic. We see one character (no spoilers here) going from a "pretty face" to a strong female after something changes her life forever, she doesn't let it beat her and for that I think she might be the best character in the book aside from Cerberus (I mean he is a giant dog, he has to be my favourite).
This is the type of book for those who love mythology, slow-burn romances, twists and turns at every corner and our trusty cliff-hangers. I am hoping we will be blessed with a sequel but I guess time will tell...I just hope it isn't a long time because this bookworm needs to know more.
Trigger Warnings: Sexual Assault, Sex, Thoughts of Murder, Graphic Violence, Slavery, Swearing, Forced Marriage, Violence, Rape and Animals in Pain/Distress.
Happy Reading!
