Author Laura Fedolfi sent me a print copy of Revealing Hannah The Myth of Arachnae for review.
Laura Fedolfi has hit another home run with this installment of the Revealing Hannah series. The first book; The Myth of Cassandra set the bar high. Arachnae clears the bar with room to spare. I don't think it absolutely necessary to have read the first book to understand this one, although if you haven't, you've missed a great story.
Our heroes, and less than heroes, get involved in one of the most convoluted adventure/mystery tales I have had the pleasure of reading. The Olympian Gods are back and as neurotic and conniving as ever. Just like politicians, the assorted deities have hidden agendas, plots and schemes to bring down their enemies and enhance their own power.
Hannah, tasked with keeping tabs on the activities of these once mighty gods (think Star Trek's prime directive), is at the very heart of the intrigue.
We have helpless gods, snarky gods, manipulative gods, evil gods, lovable demons, trapped witches and other mythological beings. We even have a few humans! Hannah continues to grow into her place in the pantheon of Olympian subterfuge. She has a new best friend I hope we see more of, and her love life is much improved.
Revealing Hannah The Myth of Arachnae brings, at different times, a feel of political thriller, mafia crime, corporate greed and women behaving badly. There is also romance, sex (finally), creepiness (I hate spiders, Arachnae hello) and fun.
Once again, Laura Fedolfi has earned my gratitude for the way she ends the story. She does such a great job of putting the characters back into there regular lives, not just abruptly resolving the main story line then leaving the reader without a feeling of true resolution. This is one of my favorite things about her writing.
I really enjoyed Revealing Hannah The Myth of Arachnae by Laura Fedolfi. I'm pretty sure readers will like this second offering in the series. Enjoy!
Mike
