![]() ![]() Zephyr’s background and past are revealed through a series of convenient reminisces and flashbacks that gradually color in the story. How Zephyr, a peace-loving harpy afraid of the dark, ends up a murderer shovelling mud in the pits of Tartarus is a story that slowly unfolds as the plot moves forward. She’s no military genius like her tough, high-powered mother and she’s not much good at magic either. Zephyr is, essentially, a failure of a harpy. The book starts out with Zephyr Mourning serving time in the Underworld, in the pits of Tartarus. Review: (For the good of everyone, I’ve abbreviated the book blurb above, since it pretty much gives away everything that happens in the book. Zephyr is on the run from a punishment worse than death when an unexpected reunion with a childhood friend (a surprisingly HOT friend) changes everything. But all that changes when her sister is murdered-and she uses a forbidden dark power to save herself from the same fate. Zephyr was ready for a future pretending to be a normal human instead of a half-god assassin. She’d rather watch reality TV than learn forty-seven ways to kill a man, and she pretty much sucks at wielding magic. Summary: Zephyr Mourning has never been very good at being a Harpy. ![]() Publisher: Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers ![]()
