First off, I LOVE Greek mythology! And what I love most about this book is that it doesn’t use the conventional and usual Greek mythological stories. Instead, Wings of Fury by @emily_r_king is set while Cronus still ruled. The Titan Prometheus has made humans but they live their lives in service to the Titans. Althea, a strong willed character finds out that in order to save her sisters and escape Thessaly, she must help the Boy God Zeus overtake his fathers crown.

Emily R. King has an amazing writing style with amazing descriptions and details that just add to the settings of the book. Her characters are also intricately constructed and easy to love.

Althea is an inspiring woman. In times where women are dismissed as their husbands property and have little rights in society, forced to hide behind masks, Althea stands up for herself and refuses to give her life away to a marriage where she will be silenced.

The other thing I loved about this book, the plot twists! Betrayal, surprise character reveals, this book has it all!

I won’t lie, it has me crying from the prologue the language and story was just so emotive! And that’s always a good sign for me!

This was my first book by Emily R. King but I will certainly be checking more of her work out soon!
