I am so excited to share my review of HADES with you today!
Larissa Ione and Blue Box Press have reissued the Demonica Underworld books (previously published under 1001 Dark Nights) with new covers, bonus material, and updated content previously left on the cutting room floor.
The Demonica Underworld series is a spinoff of the Demonica and Lords of Deliverance series.
Every book in the Demonica Universe is an exciting, dangerous, sensually provocative and highly seductive grotesquerie with exceptionally clever dialogue and thrilling storylines.
This series is not for the faint of heart, but it is for those who like their romance spicy and supernatural.
This is a world where demons, werewolves, vampires, and angels exist. Where Heaven and Hell are real places. Where not all demons are bad and not all angels are good. And where there is a demon-run hospital that takes care of all types of demons, angels, and otherworldly beings.
Oh, and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are also real.
Are you excited yet?

About the Book
A fallen angel with a mean streak and a mohawk, Hades has spent thousands of years serving as Jailor of the Underworld. The souls he guards are as evil as they come, but few dare to cross him. All of that changes when a sexy fallen angel infiltrates his prison and unintentionally starts a riot. It’s easy enough to quell an uprising, but for the first time, Hades is torn between delivering justice — or bestowing mercy — on the beautiful female who could be his salvation…or his undoing.
Thanks to her unwitting participation in another angel’s plot to start Armageddon, Cataclysm was kicked out of Heaven and is now a fallen angel in service of Hades’s boss, Azagoth. All she wants is to redeem herself and get back where she belongs. But when she gets trapped in Hades’s prison domain with only the cocky but irresistible Hades to help her, Cat finds that where she belongs might be in the place she least expected…
My Review
As a former angel in Heaven and current biblical prophecy bearer, Hades is the smokin’ hot second-in-command to Azagoth in Sheoul-gra–realm of demon souls holding tank. Being #2 in charge is NOT the prize it sounds like. Quite the opposite, actually.
Cat is a klutzy fallen angel currently serving the Grim Reaper while trying to get her wings back and secretly pining after a certain blue-mohawked Jailer of Souls. When Cat tries to fix one of her kerfuffles, an even bigger kerfuffle occurs and all hell breaks loose. She’s really put her foot in it this time. Azagoth is going to be PISSED!
I thought Cat and Hades' story was absolutely adorable! I mean, sure it’s a torturous hellish prison realm with fallen angels, demons, evil souls, tons of creepy crawlies, and a few hellhounds but the ambiance is just right for a Demonica Underworld love story.
Despite the powerful, sadistic, heavily muscled bad boy that Hades is, he’s secretly a cinnamon roll MMC any gal, guy, or demon would swoon for! Cat and Hades’ witty banter stole the show, and my heart!
HADES is a quick read full of action, wit, and a swoon-worthy love story! Highly recommend!
The book also has a few extras at the end, including a decadent dessert recipe!
