The Styx

Dark, gritty and full of revenge and curses. Who doesn't love the Greek Gods. This time we are setting them in the Louisiana Swamps which sets the perfect dark gothic scene for this families need to get out from under the Gods thumb. Elena's writing allows you to quickly bond with the characters within the first chapter for each. Also, the sprinkling of humor from the ghosts helps to offset the desperation exhibited by the main characters. Thoroughly enjoyable book.
