All myths skew the truth... From the age of five, Hades was imprisoned and tortured at the hands of his father, the Titan King. Every night he’d dream of freedom and the chance to seek his revenge. When Zeus saved him and their four siblings and declared war on the Titans, Hades thought his father’s days were numbered. Ten years later, Hades fears Cronus won’t face the consequences for his vile nature. The gods are struggling to maintain their early momentum. Lately, they lose more battles than they win. Morale is low, and many of their allies have abandoned them for the opposite side. The Fates propose a way for the gods to topple the Titans once and for all, and though apprehensive, Hades embraces the opportunity. His rash decision takes him to the Underworld to join forces with Kore, the Daemon Queen. Kore despises Cronus as much as the gods. She wants nothing more than to watch him suffer, and for the gods to reign in a new era. For ten years, she’s offered her assistance, and each time she’s been turned away. Finally, Zeus pushes Kore too far, and she vows to leave the gods to their inevitable demise. Her conviction doesn’t last long when Hades appears, begging for her help. Against her Council’ wishes and her own good sense, Kore agrees to lead Hades through her home, Tartarus, to search for the Hecatoncheires—the gods’ only hope to destroy Cronus. Their journey pushes them to their limits, in both body and mind. Along the way, their hearts get tangled in the mix; a more dangerous dilemma than defeating the Titans. For if they survive, to remain together, they may have to battle both the Underworld and Upperworld.

For twenty years, the gods have warred with the Titans. Ego and negligence have eaten away their early momentum, and now they lose more battles than they win. Morale is low, and many of their allies have defected. There’s not much time before the tides turn completely and the gods lose everything that they’ve fought tirelessly to establish. When the Fates propose a way to end the Titans for good, Hades accepts the task, though he’s apprehensive. He wants nothing more than for his father, Cronus, to pay for all the terrible things he’s done. His rash decision takes him to the Underworld to join forces with Kore, the Daemon Queen. Kore despises Cronus as much as the gods do. His rule over the cosmos is a threat to the Underworld, and she believes that if the gods win, they’ll bring in a new, peaceful era. She has been offering her army’s might for twenty years, and each time, the gods have turned her away. Finally, Zeus pushes Kore too far, and she vows to leave the gods to their inevitable demise. Her conviction doesn’t last long when Hades appears, begging for her help. Against her own good sense and the warnings of others, Kore agrees to guide Hades through her home, Tartarus, to search for the Hecatoncheires—ancient beings with the power and motive to take on Cronus. Their journey pushes them to their limits, both body and mind. Along the way, their hearts entwine, posing a greater risk than exploring Tartarus. To be together, they may have to take on both the Underworld and Upperworld.

All myths skew the truth... Twenty years have come and gone since the Titan War; since Hades' fate was sealed. He has remained in the Underworld, a recluse who misses his home but accepts his self-inflicted banishment. He believes he'll never set foot again on the Upperworld, but that changes when he's convinced to go to Olympus for The Deciding: a celebration of gods and goddesses about to receive their Purposes. By chance, Hades encounters Persephone, a young goddess with eyes as captivating as a field of flowers. Their time together on Olympus is brief, but Persephone manages to do the unthinkable. She brings joy to his wounded heart. All Persephone has dreamed of is entering godhood and being strong enough to detach from her mother's hip. After meeting Hades, she realizes she craves something more, something she's never considered before now. It isn't until a strange encounter with the Fates that she takes the opportunity to live on her terms. This newfound bravery and confidence drive her to the Underworld, a place full of secrets that she's the center of. Another side of her awakens, a terrifying and exhilarating side that pushes her further into Hades' arms and has her falling in love with a realm she's been taught to fear and hate. Every time she visits, she finds it more difficult to leave, to remember her place. Things turn for the worse when Zeus discovers her biggest secret. Fearful of the truth, he lashes out; hurting all those in existence. Can Persephone embrace the truth in time to stop Zeus? Can she find a way to have Hades but also fully embrace her Purpose?

Hades, the wickedly dark god-king of the Underworld, needs a queen... And he’s chosen Persephone. All Persephone has ever desired is control of her own life, and someone noticing her once in a while. Kept in her mother’s shadow, and overlooked by the entirety of Olympus, her dream seems impossible… and now she’s doomed to wed a dull god of her mother’s choosing… Until she crosses paths with a handsome, dark warrior who rouses wildfire heat in her veins—a male whose immense power is unmistakable, and who matches the fearful tales whispered in Olympus—stories of a cruel, heartless king who rules his realm of death with an iron fist. When Hades abducts her and imprisons her in the depths of the Underworld, a dormant part of her awakens. And as she slowly discovers the truth about him, Persephone isn’t sure whether the snarling, dark beast of a king is her doom… or her saviour… but she knows one thing… She will embrace the fire he awakens in her with every heated glance, and every vicious growl. And use it to tame him and forge her dreams into reality. Because, Persephone, the quiet, gentle goddess of nature, desires a king. And nothing will stop her from claiming his black heart.

Nautilus Award Winner In this empowering work, the bestselling author of The Hero Within and Awakening the Heroes Within speaks to the heroine in every woman, offering potent strategies to forge lives of greater happiness and fulfillment—through activating the archetypes inherent in the ancient Greek myth of Demeter and Persephone. Our era of professional and familial pressures, constant connection, and a renewed debate on “having it all” presents unprecedented challenges to contemporary women. In Persephone Rising, celebrated scholar of depth psychology and archetypes Carol S. Pearson brings a fresh vision for meeting those challenges and rising above them, as only she can. Drawing on her profound understanding of myth's enduring power to catalyze transformations, Pearson guides readers on a journey of self-discovery, teaching us how to activate and apply the archetypes of Demeter and Persephone, as well as Zeus and Dionysus, in our own lives— empowering readers to see the unexpected choices and opportunities available to us all. Illuminating ancient wisdom for a modern audience, Persephone Rising offers meaningful and effective strategies to answer the call to heroism in our own lives: to locate and harness the unique potential within each of ourselves, and ultimately to develop our own innate heroic gifts. Just as Demeter and Persephone discovered, in the midst of great difficulty, their own powers, gifts, and abilities for creating a better path not only for themselves, but the world, Persephone Rising teaches that each one of us has more options than choosing whether to lean in or out—we have the power to change ourselves, and thus our world.

Here, Levitz demonstrates how a group of collaboratoring artists - Igor Stravinsky, Ida Rubenstein, Jacques Copeau, André Gide and others - used the myth of Perséphone to perform and articulate their most deeply held beliefs about four topics significant to modernism: religion, sexuality, death, and historical memory in art.
