Lore Olympus: Volume One byRachel Smythe



Experience the propulsive love story of two Greek gods—Hades and Persephone—brought to life with lavish artwork and an irresistible contemporary voice.

Scandalous gossip, wild parties, and forbidden love—witness what the gods do after dark in this stylish and contemporary reimagining of one of mythology’s most well-known stories from creator Rachel Smythe. Featuring a brand-new, exclusive short story, Smythe’s original Eisner-nominated web-comic Lore Olympus brings the Greek Pantheon into the modern age with this sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel.

I liked it. For me, it read rather quickly and I have always liked the story of Hades and Persephone.

[Joan]

I read this one and I thought the ending was confusing. The graphics were good though. It wasn't my favorite graphic novel that I've read.

[Victoria]

I loved this so much that I went through all 190 chapters in three days! The story twists further and further and new characters get introduced every 20 chapters or so, adding to the drama!

[Kaitlin]

Big fan of this one! I finished the physical book in one sitting, so after that I went ahead to check out the rest of the series on Webtoon. Highly recommend checking that out too!

Bringing this out of archives, as we are reading vol #2 for in February the additional read. Just in case any of you are starting from the beginning.

[Jenna]

I recently read this and really enjoyed it. I will definitely be reading vol 2 with the group this month.

Can you believe I still need to read this one...?

[Michelle]

I finally read this and wow. I need to order the rest of the books in the series asap! So good!
