I’ve been obsessed with mythology since I was a kid, so diving into 'Son of Hades - Prince of the Underworld' felt like coming home. The story doesn’t just feature Greek gods—it breathes new life into them, twisting familiar myths into something fresh and unpredictable. Hades isn’t just the brooding ruler of the dead here; he’s a complex father figure, and the Underworld feels less like a gloomy pit and more like a kingdom teeming with political intrigue. The way the author reimagines gods like Hermes as a slick, fast-talking informant or Persephone as a strategist with a garden of poisonous blossoms? It’s genius. The protagonist, being Hades’ son, navigates this world with a mix of awe and defiance, and the gods’ interactions with him crackle with tension. You’ll spot Zeus’s lightning ego, Athena’s cold calculations, and even Dionysus throwing chaotic parties in the background. It’s not a dry retelling—it’s a living, breathing pantheon where divine power clashes with very human emotions.

The book also digs into lesser-known figures like Hecate or the Furies, giving them roles that feel vital rather than decorative. The way it handles godly powers is particularly cool—Hades’ son doesn’t just inherit shadow manipulation; he struggles with the weight of souls whispering to him, and Apollo’s blessings are as much a curse when they come with prophetic nightmares. The gods aren’t untouchable; they scheme, love, and bleed like anyone else, just on a grander scale. What stands out is how the story balances reverence for the source material with bold twists, like making the Underworld’s rivers sentient or turning Cerberus into a shapeshifting enforcer. If you’re into Greek myths, this isn’t a cameo parade—it’s a full-blown Olympus-meets-noir drama with teeth.

Zeno Silver: If I had to describe Rogue Alpha, I'd say a surly, temperamental pain in my ass, and if possible, everywhere else. Never would I dare assume a deal my father made would drive me right into the arms of the monster himself. I had become Alpha a few months ago, and all I wanted was to protect my people. I brought peace, well, sort of, yet the consequences came in the form of an unwanted husband. Alpha Hades: I never labelled myself, especially regarding my sexuality. Not that I had enough time to experiment when my life was a vicious cycle of grief and pain, but these days, I found myself becoming the leader, the Alpha of an unstoppable army. I knew what I wanted when I took the deal: easy access to my enemies' pack. Exchanging false vows with an Alpha leading the pack that would become the perfect pawn in my plan sounded like a no-brainer. Except my stomach flipped every time he looked my way, and my body reacted when he brushed by me. He had an effect on me that I'd never wish on anyone. With this connection between us, this pull, this need... I'm not sure either of us is still playing the game.

Everyone knows the mythology of the gods. What happens if what is known was manipulated by the gods themselves. Our favorite triplets are back. This is their story of how they came to be. Follow along as they grow up and find friends, enemies, and their soul bonds along the way. This is book #2 in the series. They weren't supposed to exist, yet here they are. "We have to keep them protected" Zeus roars. "That doesn't mean we have to keep them locked up." Aphrodite states. The gods turn as they hear the door opens slamming against the wall. There stand the triples. A look of surprise spreads across everyone's face. "What the hell did you do to your hair and are those tattoos?" Poseidon asks. "We dyed it, and yes they are tattoos and we also got a few body piercings" Kylani answers. "We will not stay hidden away or kept locked up. We have no interest in this life. We are going to walk on the earth with the supernatural and humans. They accept us more than you do." Mykenzie announces. The girls vanish at that moment. Chris stands there with a look of regret in his eyes. He knew this was coming. They wanted sweet, innocent goddesses like their mother and aunts. What they got was an attitude in a 5'4" package only doubled. "I told you not to force your ways upon them. They have been independent since birth. You brought this upon yourselves." Hades tells them

Betrayed to Tartarus by the One I Saved

My wife, Cassia, was a wood nymph. A cursed one. Forbidden to love mortals. But she fell for me anyway. Every time her heart fluttered for me, the gods struck her down with agony. She willingly endured that torture ninety-nine times just for a chance to be with me. Then, demons dragged me to Tartarus. Hellfire and whips became my sun and moon. Right as I was about to break, I remembered a prayer Cassia taught me—a desperate whisper to the gods. It finally worked. But instead of help, I heard Cassia talking to her patron goddess, Hecate. "Cassia, how could you bargain with the Furies? You let them drag Aiden to Tartarus!" Cassia's voice choked with desperate tears. "Adonis was supposed to suffer this fate. But he's a fragile mortal. This would destroy his soul! I had no choice if I wanted to save him." "Aiden is a child of prophecy. His soul is strong. The Fates watch over him. He'll survive." "Once I save Adonis, I can stay in the mortal realm forever. Then, I'll use my eternal life and all my love to repay the hell he's enduring for me." My heart shattered. As the monsters closed in on me, I stopped fighting. I gave up.

Hades was well-cast to rule over the land of the dead. But what if Hades, the fearsome monarch of the Underworld was, in fact, a goddess? Everyone called her, 'Lord of the Dead' out of mockery since she prefers the company of women. She was considered an isolated and violent immortal, who loathed change and was easily given to a slow black rage like no others. But then everything changed when the dark goddess met the daughter of Demeter, Persephone. Now the tale of Hades and Persephone will be retold with a sprinkle of twists and turns.

I was Apollo’s most devoted follower, the lover he handpicked from a sea of worshippers. With me, he’d always shed his divine arrogance. He was so tender, so attentive. I actually thought he loved me to the bone. Until seven days before our Consort Ceremony, when I used my gift of prophecy to peek into our future together. I expected to see a lifetime of blinding love. Instead, I saw him violently tangled in the sheets with my adopted sister, Cassandra. Wrapped around him, Cassandra giggled. "You're so good to me, my Lord. Thanks to you, I'll finally get my sister's Sight and take her place as High Priestess." And Apollo—my god, my lover—smiled down at her with pure adoration. "Whatever makes you happy, little bird. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have played pretend for this long, let alone allow her to become a god's consort." In that split second, my heart turned to ash. My faith shattered into a million pieces. With seven days left until the ceremony, I didn't confront them. Instead, I fell to my knees before the altar of Hades, Lord of the Underworld. "I offer you my gift of prophecy. I will be your most loyal follower in exchange for your sanctuary." "Please. Take me away from here. Take me somewhere Apollo can never find me."

Is Hades based on Greek mythology?

Hades is absolutely steeped in Greek mythology, and it's one of the things I adore about the game. The way Supergiant Games weaves in gods, heroes, and underworld lore feels so organic—it's like they took a dusty old tome of myths and breathed vibrant, chaotic life into it. Zagreus, the protagonist, isn't just some random rebel; he's the son of Hades, fighting his way through the underworld to reach the surface, and every encounter with Olympus' deities drips with personality. What's brilliant is how they reinterpret myths. Achilles and Patroclus? Their tragic bond is there, but with a quiet, aching tenderness. Nyx, the primordial night, gets this majestic, otherworldly presence. Even minor figures like Dusa (Medusa) are reimagined with humor and heart. The game doesn't just borrow names—it excavates the emotional core of these stories and lets you live it, sword swing by sword swing. After 50 escape attempts, I still pause to savor the dialogue because it feels like chatting with legends who've known each other for eons.

Is the crown prince of the underworld based on a myth?

The idea of a 'crown prince of the underworld' feels like a mashup of mythologies and modern storytelling. I’ve stumbled across similar figures in Greek myths—Hades obviously rules the underworld, but there’s also Thanatos, the personification of death, who kinda fits the 'prince' vibe. Then you’ve got Osiris in Egyptian lore, who’s more of a judge than a prince, but his son Horus has that regal aura. It’s wild how these old tales get reinterpreted in stuff like 'Hades' the game or 'Lore Olympus,' where Persephone’s daughter could arguably be seen as underworld royalty. Makes me wonder if the 'crown prince' concept is just a creative twist on these ancient threads. Honestly, I love how myths evolve. The underworld isn’t just some gloomy pit anymore; it’s got dynasties, drama, and even romance now. Whether it’s Lucifer in 'Supernatural' or Orpheus’s modern retellings, the underworld prince trope feels fresh yet rooted in something ancient. Makes me wanna dig deeper into Etruscan or Mesopotamian myths to see if they had similar figures lurking around.
