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.

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.

Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author of From Blood and Ash “It is natural for a King to be curious about his future Queen. . . .” 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. With all the mounting pressure and expectations—of their family, friends, and enemies—both Hades and Persephone tell themselves to deny their deepest desires, but the pull between them is too tempting, too magnetic. It’s fate. This edition of Smythe’s original Eisner-winning webcomic Lore Olympus brings Greek mythology into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel.

No terceiro volume da premiada série de Rachel Smythe, Hades e Perséfone lutam contra seus desejos cada vez mais fortes e inevitáveis. Best-seller do New York Times e ganhador do Prêmio Eisner, Lore Olympus é fenômeno absoluto do Webtoon e o quadrinho mais lido do mundo atualmente. No Olimpo e no Submundo só se fala do que anda rolando entre o Deus dos Mortos e a vistosa filha de Deméter. Em meio a tanto fuxico, Hades e Perséfone têm muita coisa a resolver nas suas vidas. Desde que chegou ao Olimpo, Perséfone se esforça para ser a jovem deusa e donzela perfeita. A atração que sente por Hades só deixou mais pesado o fardo que é cumprir as expectativas de todos. Depois do abuso que sofreu, ela teme não conseguir encobrir a mágoa e o amor intensos que tanto lutou para esconder. Enquanto Perséfone reflete sobre o futuro, Hades luta contra seu passado e reata a relação tóxica que tinha com Minte. Conforme a pressão e o frenesi — da família, dos amigos, dos inimigos — aumentam, tanto Hades quanto Perséfone tentam calar seus desejos cada vez mais evidentes. Mas a tentação é forte e a atração é magnética. É destino. Ganhador dos prêmios Eisner e Harvey e finalista do prêmio Hugo, Lore Olympus é fenômeno absoluto na plataforma Webtoon e reúne fãs no mundo todo. O terceiro volume da série traz os episódios 50 a 75 do webcomic, além de um conto exclusivo e inédito. “Com uma arte vivaz, irresistível e uma narrativa que faria até as musas desfalecerem, este mito moderno explora as trevas das histórias da Antiguidade sem perder a própria luz.” — Alexandra Bracken, autora de Lore “Lore Olympus é um quadrinho viciante e uma pedra preciosa, repleto de personagens complexos e adoráveis (e detestáveis). A arte é luxuosa e dramática, com cores belíssimas e um traço ousado, que tornam cada quadro um banquete onírico para os olhos.” — Faith Erin Hicks, quadrinista vencedora do prêmio Eisner “Uma reinvenção impressionante da mitologia clássica. Ao adaptar a história de Perséfone e Hades, Rachel Smythe desloca o mito de suas origens sombrias e constrói um épico absolutamente renovado, com personagens tão profundos quanto belos. A cereja do bolo está nos deuses, ninfas e criaturas que compõem o mundo de Smythe.” — Liv Albert, autora de Greek Mythology: The Gods, Goddesses, and Heroes Handbook e criadora do podcast Let’s Talk About Myths, Baby!

No quarto volume da premiada série de Rachel Smythe, Hades e Perséfone continuam sendo o principal assunto na rede de fofocas do Olimpo, e o clima começa a ficar opressivo. É quando os dois decidem pisar no freio do romance. Best-seller do New York Times e ganhador do Prêmio Eisner, Lore Olympus é fenômeno absoluto do Webtoon e o quadrinho mais lido do mundo atualmente. Hades busca apoio na vida pessoal, mas Zeus faz pouco-caso dos seus sentimentos e Minte volta a ter comportamentos abusivos. Por mais que tente impor seus limites, o rei do Submundo continua sozinho e perdido. Perséfone, igualmente isolada depois que seus colegas de faculdade se afastam por causa da sua relação com Hades, sequer encontra refúgio em casa, onde Apolo insiste em aparecer sem ser convidado. Como se não bastasse, Ares, o tempestuoso deus da guerra, está de volta para desenterrar sua história com a deusa da primavera, ameaçando trazer o passado da jovem à tona e arruinar ainda mais sua reputação. Apesar de concordarem em ir devagar, Perséfone e Hades se veem irremediavelmente atraídos um pelo outro em meio ao caos, e não há como negar a força do destino. Ganhador dos prêmios Eisner e Harvey e finalista do prêmio Hugo, Lore Olympus é fenômeno absoluto na plataforma Webtoon e reúne fãs no mundo todo.

Finalista dos prêmios Eisner e Hugo e fenômeno absoluto no WEBTOON, o webcomic é uma releitura deslumbrante, envolvente e revolucionária da mitologia grega. Perséfone, a jovem Deusa da Primavera, acabou de chegar no Olimpo.

Quando a amiga Ártemis leva Perséfone para uma festa, sua vida muda completamente: lá ela conhece Hades, e o charmoso e incompreendido líder do Submundo desperta nela uma chama. Agora, Perséfone precisa aprender a lidar com as relações e as políticas confusas que regem o Olimpo, enquanto descobre seu lugar e seu próprio poder. O primeiro volume da série reúne 25 episódios do webcomic, além de um conto exclusivo e inédito. “É fácil entender por que a internet se apaixonou por Lore Olympus: a obra é uma releitura dos mitos gregos fascinante, provocativa e encantadora.” — Marissa Meyer, autora best-seller do New York Times “Embora Smythe jogue com o potencial cômico da premissa, ela leva a sério os dramas subjetivos dos personagens e explora os elementos problemáticos da mitologia grega. Rica em detalhes e saborosa, é uma história difícil de resistir.” — Publishers Weekly “Maravilhoso. Rachel Smythe é uma grande contadora de histórias que enche cada página com lindas ilustrações, humor, emoção e alegria.” — Meg Cabot

No segundo volume da premiada série de Rachel Smythe, Hades luta para lidar com sentimentos até então desconhecidos para o Rei do Submundo, enquanto Perséfone tenta descobrir se suas expectativas para o futuro ainda condizem com suas escolhas.

Perséfone estava pronta para começar uma nova vida quando deixou o Reino Mortal para viver no Olimpo. Porém, ela logo descobriu o lado sombrio do novo e deslumbrante lar, e agora tenta encontrar seu lugar no mundo dos deuses, sempre em constante e rápida mudança. Hades também está abalado, lutando contra seus sentimentos pela jovem Deusa da Primavera, enquanto mantém seu reinado solitário do Submundo. Conforme se aproximam, os dois precisarão desatar os nós do passado e do presente para construir um futuro juntos. Ganhador do Prêmio Eisner e finalista do Prêmio Hugo, Lore Olympus reúne fãs ao redor do mundo todo. O segundo volume da série contém os episódios 26 a 49 do webcomic, além de um conto exclusivo e inédito. “Se pudéssemos comer com os olhos, este livro seria um verdadeiro banquete. O estilo artístico de Smythe tem cores vivas e traços fortes, provocativos, que transformam as cenas de hilárias a devastadoras com o simples virar de uma página. É uma perspectiva bastante jovem para uma história muito antiga.” — The New York Times “Um dos melhores quadrinhos que o leitor encontrará, ponto final. A arte impressionante de Smythe — com uma paleta de cores distinta e minuciosamente escolhida, os traços dos personagens inspirados em animação, e texturas em aquarela — só aumenta a ressonância emocional da narrativa. Lore Olympus certamente se destaca.” — Cultured Vultures “Mais um volume magnífico da obra de Smythe; Lore Olympus é certamente uma das melhores releituras de mitos gregos já feitas.” — Booklist
