____________________________________ Persephone, young goddess of
spring, is new to Olympus. Her mother, Demeter, has raised her in
the mortal realm, but after Persephone promises to train as a
sacred virgin, she's allowed to live in the fast-moving, glamorous
world of the gods. When her roommate, Artemis, takes her to a
party, her entire life changes: she ends up meeting Hades and feels
an immediate spark with the charming yet misunderstood ruler of the
Underworld. Now Persephone must navigate the confusing politics and
relationships that rule Olympus, while also figuring out her own
place - and her own power. This edition of Smythe's original
Eisner-nominated webcomic Lore Olympus features a brand-new,
exclusive short story, and brings the Greek pantheon into the
modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel. This

mythology from creator Rachel Smythe. "I don't always get to do as
I please." The rumor mill of Olympus is constantly churning, but
Persephone and Hades are all anyone can talk about. With the
constant gossip creating intense pressure on the pair, they decide
to slow down their budding romance and focus on sorting out their
own issues first. But that's easier said than done. Hades struggles
to find support in his personal life, with Zeus trivializing his
feelings and Minthe resorting to abusive patterns in their
relationship. And while Hades tries to create healthier boundaries
where he can-like finally putting a stop to his sporadic,
revenge-fueled hookups with Hera-he still feels lonely and adrift.
Persephone feels equally ostracized as her classmates shun her for
her connection to Hades, and she can find no refuge at home, with
Apollo constantly dropping by unannounced and pushing his unwelcome
advances. And on top of it all, the wrathful god of war, Ares, has
returned to Olympus to dredge up his sordid history with the
goddess of spring, threatening to surface Persephone's dark and
mysterious past and ruin her tenuous position in the land of the
gods. Despite agreeing to take it slow, Persephone and Hades find
themselves inextricably drawn toward each other once more amid the
chaos. The pull of fate cannot be denied. This edition of Rachel
Smythe's original Eisner-winning webcomic Lore Olympus features
exclusive behind-the-scenes content and brings the Greek pantheon
into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic
novel. This volume collects episodes 76-102 of the #1 WEBTOON comic

"You want to know about The Bringer of Death."
It is Persephone's birthday, and she receives the ultimate gift: Hades
confesses his desire for her, leading to their first kiss. But that
doesn't necessarily make things easier for the goddess of spring, who
is still in over her head in gossip-driven Olympus. Persephone feels
intense guilt over the official breakup between Hades and Minthe, she
is struggling to find her footing in her fast-paced job, and - worst of
all - the shades of her past are slowly coming to light.
After an unexpected encounter with Apollo, Persephone flees into the
depths of the Underworld. Concerned for her safety and determined to
find her, Hades must team up with Artemis, Eros, and Hera, but they're
working against a ticking clock. Zeus knows about the bloody secret in
Persephone's past, and now the furious king of the gods will stop at
nothing to bring her to justice.

. . ." All of Olympus-and the Underworld-are talking about the God
of the Dead and the sprightly daughter of Demeter. But despite the
rumors of their romance, Hades and Persephone have plenty to
navigate on their own. Since coming to Olympus, Persephone has
struggled to be the perfect maiden goddess. Her attraction to Hades
has only complicated the intense burden of the gods' expectations.
And after Apollo's assault, Persephone fears she can no longer bury
the intense feelings of hurt and love that she's worked so hard to
hide. As Persephone contemplates her future, Hades struggles with
his past, falling back into toxic habits in Minthe's easy embrace.

deny their deepest desires, but the pull between them is too
tempting, too magnetic. It's fate. This full-color edition of
