The Goddess Hunt (Goddess Test, #1.5)

by Aimée Carter

[Stephanie]

What I Liked: This is a novella intended to hold us over between The Goddess Test and Goddess Interrupted. It gives us a look at the future Queen of the Underworld. Kate is still a strong young woman with a sharp sense of right and wrong. Without knowing the entire back story Kate is able to discern that the gods are allowing their pride to blind them to the injustice they are inflicting upon Pollux and Castor. It was a nice quick read and Aimee Carter included a showdown between Walter and Kate. :)

What I Could Have Lived Without: James kind of got on my nerves in The Goddess Hunt. He was incessantly reminding Kate that she had a choice and she didn’t have to do what everyone thought she should. I mean it was great that Kate had someone interested in her best interest but James wants her so it’s not even close to unbiased.

Recommended For: Readers who have read the first book. It’s not necessary but it does add value to the book.

Avoid If: You have no interest in picking up either book in the series. It doesn’t stand alone well (which it wasn’t intended to)
