A Court of Mist and Fury
Sarah J. Maas
by Rachel Smythe
When the god of the Underworld crashes a party he was never meant to attend, the last thing Hades expects is to find himself utterly undone by a goddess of spring.
Rachel Smythe's Eisner Award-winning fantasy reimagines the iconic myth of Hades and Persephone with breathtaking modern flair, and this stunning boxed set collects the first three hardcover volumes of the beloved webcomic series. Set against a vividly stylized Mount Olympus where gods navigate scandal, power, and desire with all-too-human messiness, the story pulls readers into a world where ancient mythology crackles with contemporary energy.
Persephone is young, sheltered, and fiercely determined to forge her own path among gods who underestimate her at every turn. Hades is brooding, powerful, and convinced that someone as luminous as she is could never belong in his shadowed world. They shouldn't make sense together. They absolutely shouldn't trust each other. And yet, every charged encounter between them rewrites what either believed possible.
Smythe's artwork is nothing short of extraordinary—lush, full-color pages that shift between tenderness and tension with stunning precision. The hate-to-love slow burn here isn't just romantic; it's transformative, watching two deeply guarded souls dismantle each other's walls one breathless moment at a time.
If you've ever wanted a love story that feels both timeless and urgently alive, Lore Olympus is the series you've been waiting for. The gods have never looked this good—or felt this real.
