Colors of Magic by Liz Sauco is a companion anthology (a collection of stories) to the Blades of the Goddess series. In this book we get a glimpse into the lives of Hades' companions and Hades herself, and a deeper understanding of what happened in the past.  

Seeing the course of Abomination, the hardships it caused for so many, and the resolve and faith people found through it all, is really inspiring. As with all other books in The Blades of the Goddess series, this book draws you in and sticks. I couldn't stop wondering what would happen next, I laughed, I cried, I was scared and excited. 

"He would remember the truth for them." 

I really like how the characters have colors to represent them in the book. Nine stories, nine different colors and nine very likeable characters. And let's not forget about the wargs, those are so loveable and smart!  

Colors of Magic is a quick read with only 287 pages, but it is such a great addition to the series. I loved getting to know more of the characters I got to know in Lost Blades and Broken Blades, and cannot wait to read Blades Reforged! 

Thanks to the author Liz Sauco for giving me the opportunity to read this ARC. I received this ARC for free but my opinions are my own and my review is voluntarily.
