This makes me wonder what the third Hades’s book is going to focus on.

Plus, it allowed for a lot of character growth. But it was interesting to see Persephone handle that. I figured that would be something covered in the third book from Hades’s POV. To various items that came up in that book like the Chains of Truth. From the favor that Thesus extracted from Hades in exchange for helping him capture a relic that made the Fates threaten to remove Persephone from Hades’s life. The events of that book become serious mentions through the course of A Touch of Malice.

According to the author’s guide, this is the last book from Persephone’s POV, the book that takes place after this will be a dual perspective between Hades and Persephone. Not to mention consequences from things that happened in the previous book. Not to mention she’s still figuring out her magic and herself.

Persephone now has to deal with the aftermath of her mother’s reaction to her engagement to Hades. Clair, takes place a little while after the events of A Touch of Ruin.
