Noir and his sister Azura are both demon-type gods who rule in Azmodea, a hell. Seth, the Guardian, son of Set and a human woman, is a demigod. Solin is a dream-hunter entrusted with the Key that can open up Olympus and total access to its gods and their annihilation. Lydia Tsakali has lost her entire family except her father, and there is something that threatens her existence, keeps her lurking under the radar. Enabling Lydia to learn Seth, to fall in love, to change him. Whom Seth captures and holds prisoner against Solin’s promise to find the Key and return with it. An impossible task made even more impossible by the demands Noir makes, by the feelings he discovers with Lydia Tsakali, the warrior who storms Azmodea to rescue Solin. Now, Noir is granting Seth the chance for a few hours of relief if he brings the Key to him. A very well-rounded torture as his jailers piled on the physical, the emotional, and the mental torture in equal amounts.
Most of it spent in the most hideous torture after being beaten and left in the desert at age 6 and then sold by his foster family at age 13. Seth has not experienced love in a v-e-r-y long time. I did enjoy Seth learning about the changes made in the world and especially his encounters with a laptop and the marvels it reveals.
I think this whole “everyone’s out to get me” approach is wearing thin for me. It’s going from a “buy as soon as it’s published” to a “well, I’ll get around to it” kind of read. Kenyon’s last few stories have been losing the grip previous ones have had on me. It simply yammers on and on about how awful Seth’s life was. Important events occur that are just dropped in without explanation or lead up which only confused me. Part of my disenchantment is the lack of information. A few of the series’ characters were brought in for cameo roles but this was more a rote relating of information than a compelling story. Unfortunately, Kenyon never grabbed me with her characters. Well, there is certainly a lot of action in this one. The couple focus is on Lydia and Seth, the Guardian.
