This boxset contains the complete series of the Forgotten Gods series, making it great value. I really enjoyed reading these stories and seeing a different side to Gods and Goddesses from mythology, as well as meeting some new ones. My only negative is that, while we see great personal development of the characters and romantic tales, the general storyline action that is supposed to happen throughout the books never actually comes to anything, which is rather disappointing and a bit of a damp sq

This is a series based on Egyptian Gods coping with living in the modern world. Each book in this box set is reviewed individually below.

I really loved Protectors of Poison. Yes, it is a quick read but it is definitely good. It has some mystery, suspense, drama, and romance. It is extremely well written and the characters are beautifully developed. I loved Sera and Sed together. They have great chemistry and personalities. The story is different with the Egyptian Gods and how they would be in today’s society. It made a very unique story. I would have loved it to be longer just because I would have loved to read more about Sera an

I've read each of these books separately and loved getting them in a box set. This author has piqued my interest into the world of mythology and I look forward to reading more of her books in the future.
Protectors of Poison:
This is a quick, well written story with a mix of mystery, mythology, shifters and romance. I love the way the past and present collide with magic and the journey we go on with Sera to find out why she's losing her powers and if she can get them back. I will definitely be loo ...more

Protectors of Poison 5⭐️
Our scorpion goddess is very kindhearted, caring for every living. Someone is trying to destroy her, but luckily she get help. Help from someone who seems to be made for her, caring and devoted. In process they might as well save much more than just Seket’s future.
Priestess of Truth 4⭐️

Some Problems, But Good Characters to Follow
What an interesting set of stories! This quick-read series, all so conveniently packaged together in this collection, has so many elements to it: ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses, shifters, priestesses, modern-day elements, and of course, romance! One in this collection is actually a short story, but I thought it was very well done (though I would have loved to see more!).

This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. The Forgotten Gods: The Complete Series by Laura Greenwood is a set of three books. This was an exciting read for me because I absolutely love mythology. especially Egyptian mythology. This set of three books is an awesome rollercoaster ride full of fun, drama, emotional turmoil and brilliantly written characters. I actually read the first book (Protectors of Poison) when it first released in 2018 and fell in love with Sera's story. When I saw all the books put toge

All books in the "Forgotten Gods" series in one bundle? Yes, please! I've read the stories individually, but having them in one handy boxed set is a real treat. Each book can be read as a standalone, but why read only one? The author has done a wonderful job of incorporating the Egyptian mythology and gods in the storyline. An excellent read, with plenty of romance and steam, well-written and with great world and character buidling. Clear your weekend calendar, grab a copy and you won't be disap

This is one of my favorite series from the author, partly because I love Egyptian mythology, and these books are all based off of Egyptian myths. It is hard to say which would be my favorite, as I loved them all. They are all standalone, and each have a touch of romance and the author's own twist on an old myth regarding the various gods and goddesses. The books are fairly short, but not so short as to take away getting to know the characters well enough. They also do not have to be read in orde

The author weaved really enjoyable stories that features Egyptian mythology. Take the adventure that features the God and Godess as their stories are told. The stories written will take away for awhile. You have stories featuring Sekhmet, Serket and others that are included. You will also be reading about a story featuring Rhodopis, which is loosed based on the legend.

I have read a number of books by Ms. Greenwood and this boxed set is not going to be a favorite by any means. The stories are well-written but I never felt any connection to the characters or even to the subject matter for that matter. Maybe I would have enjoyed them more if I had been more interested in mythology, to begin with. Probably my loss since this is a very good author and her other books are great.

This is the complete series of Egyptian themed paranormal romance stories.
The stories are set in the time of Egyptian gods. They are well written and easy to read, with interesting plots that with some unexpected twists to it which keep you on your toes. The characters are well developed and present interesting variants on the original myths. Personally, I really enjoyed the Egyptian mythology elements throughout this series.

All nice and easy to read story's set in Egypt. Where gods, goddess, high priests, demigods, worshippers all have a role to play.
The nice thing is it is set in modern times, therefore the old gods face new challenges. As always Laura Greenwood has come up with some more lovely stories. These story's are Great to read if you are looking for a break from heavy story's. Especially the short story's are great quick reads.

A collection of mythological stories, Protector of Poison, Priestess of Truth, Daughter of the Sun and Servant of Chaos.
Each tale is about finding love in an unexpected person, forgotten, and finding who you really are. I read the series over a weekend and enjoyed each tale. My favorite was Servant of Chaos. Her acceptance of her life is changed and how she grows is well written and powerful.

This is a great way to grab the complete series and read it in one go. All the stories are fun to read and not too deep or scary. Just a good way to read away a weekend. I liked the mix/new take on Mythology with a hint of today and some magic and god power mixed in. Individually they are quick reads with interesting characters and did have a plot that was easy to follow. They were steamy and made me laugh. Plus they were not all the same story.
Gods, when not prayed to, lose their magical powers. This is a collection of stories about gods, who live a life of their own, nearly forgotten, but not entirely....
A nice collection of short stories or novelettes, with interesting characters, who face new and unexpected challenges.
The stories are entertaining, not connected, stand-alone stories. Light-hearted fun to read.

This collection with an Egyptian mythology setting makes for a great series. Each book follows along a different goddess, priestess, or slave mixing the human would and the world of the gods together. Book 1 Serket, Book 1.5 Priestes Edrice, Book 2 Sekhmet, and Book 3 Rhodopis. Each book brought something interesting to this collection.

The Forgotten Gods box set contains 3 standalone books about Ancient Egyptian gods set in modern day. I really enjoyed the stories which were all well written and exciting! They all have excellent romance and it was easy to keep reading. These books have lots of mystery and I liked the mythology. I think my favourite was Protectors of Poison, but they are all great! I definitely recommend this collection!

These stories are all interesting with fun romances. The only real disappointment is that the build-up of a conflict between gods was left unresolved. I'm hoping that the new series in this universe coming out in May will cover that.

I enjoyed this collection of stories. These Egyptian gods and goddess captured my attention and I couldn’t put them down. These characters come to life with passion, action and suspense in these stories. I was happy to be able to binge read this series. I received an arc of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
