The Damned by Laura Thalassa
5.0
What an amazing ending to what ended up being a Hades and Persephone retelling.
This whole series was unique, in that you had Gabrielle, the last of the Sirens, who is also soulmate to a vampire and promised since birth to the Devil.
Gabrielle is now in hell and is the devils consort. She gets to spend half her day in hell and part of her day on earth, however when she is on earth, if she bleeds, she creates demons who go about trying to bring about the end of the world.
While in Hell, she learns about what it will be like to be queen of the underworld, and while on earth she works with Andre, Lauren and Oliver to find away to get out of her predicament.
Not only does she have the usual suspects trying to kill her, but now the Politia, people she had worked with, have jumped on the bandwagon as well. After the ending of book 4, I'm surprised Caleb had the nerve to want forgiveness for his actions.
We have a massive ending with a battle between hell and earth.
Even though I didn't really like the devil, I really hoped he would be given a way to redeem himself, for everything he put Gabrielle through, but this did not happen.
I really wish this series hadn't ended as I loved it so much.
