Fall deep into the Underworld with this Amazon Best Selling YA Fantasy Series!Book 1/4 of the Daughter of Hades SeriesBe swept off your feet by this fresh take of Greek gods, goddesses, and demigods as they travel through the Underworld and into the streets of London!Hidden in the Underworld for thousands of years by her father Hades, Chrys wishes she could leave and see the human world. … could leave and see the human world. However, she knows that if any of the gods find her, and discover her dichotomous power over life and death, they will destroy her. So she has remained in the Underworld Palace for her entire life, making very few friends, and always bored as hell, no pun intended.
Huntley never imagined that after he died, he would wake up with a magnificent girl standing over him, especially one claiming to be the daughter of Hades. The Greek gods are real, and the god of the Underworld apparently has a daughter. Instead of sending him to the afterlife, she keeps him around to be her “tutor”, even though he obviously doesn’t have any expertise in anything other than being a punk. It is clear she wants him around to be her friend, and it is a task Huntley has no problem taking.
But after a big fight with her mother Persephone, Chrys can’t take it anymore and has to see what the human world is all about. Her and her two best friends decide to check out London, since that seems to be her mother’s favorite place recently.
It would just be for a couple of days, so nothing could go wrong on the streets of London, right?

Wow! This was one amazingly kickA book! The writing was just phenomenally excellent! The storyline was incredibly unique and had me completely enthralled from beginning to end! -Alex_K, Amazon Review ★★★★★
When I saw that this story was about Hades and Persephone and their struggle with their relationship and family I was hooked. And I am not disappointed. From the first chapter throughout the book I enjoyed this story. I felt for all the characters and the alternating storytelling from Chrys’s and Huntleys point of view kept me wanting reading more. So if you like Greek mythology this is definitely a book for you. Can’t wait for the next book in the series. -Maia Silverdagger, Amazon Review ★★★★
I love this & I can’t wait for more! -Barb VanderWel, Goodreads Review ★★★★★

I liked this book and its tale that leaps off from the tale of Hades and Persephone. I mean who can’t love finding out more about such epic characters one way or another even if it is living vicariously off of their offspring. This is a nice, easy read that is pretty entertaining.
I really enjoy reading books about Greek Mythology and I really love reading stories about Hades and Persephone. So when I read the summary for Endangered I knew I had to read it. I wanted to meet their daughter Chrys.
Chrys has lived in the Underworld with her father for many, many years. Chrys only gets to see her mother Persephone for like three months out of the year as the rest of the time her mother is on Earth.
Hades is trying to teach Chrys how to run the Underworld in case something happened to him. But of course, Chrys being your typical teenager gets bored real quick with his lessons. All she wants to do is to spend time with her friends Huntley and A.J.
Chrys is forbidden to leave the Underworld as it would be very dangerous for her if she did. Chrys has some very powerful magic and if one of the Gods ever found out that she existed then it could prove to be perilous for her. Like any teenager Chrys just wants more freedom to do what she wants. Chrys would very much like to visit Earth but is afraid of her father.
But after the fight, she has with her mom and then overhearing her mom and dad fight Chrys decides to disobey her father and go to Earth. A.J. has convinced her that it would be safe for a couple of days but Huntley is very afraid for Chrys but would never let anything happen to her if it is in his power to stop it of course.
I think Chrys wants to visit Earth mainly because her mother spends most of her time there. Chrys just wants to see for herself the place that her mother would rather be than with her own daughter.
Endangered was a very captivating and spellbinding story that had me from the first page to the last. The characters were all well developed and sounded like real teenagers do. The world-building was incredibly and superbly written. I can’t wait to see where Chrys and the rest of the crew take us in Engaged book two of the Daughter of Hades series.
I definitely recommend Endangered to all fans of Mythology, Greek Mythology, fantasy, and magic. Now it is time to one-click your copy of Endangered today for another great adventure to the Underworld!
“Endangered” is the first book in the “Daughter of Hades” by Dani Hoots, a series that blends urban fantasy, Greek mythology and paranormal romance into a compelling, interesting story.
Chrys is the daughter of Hades and Persephone, who has been secreted away in the Underworld Palace for centuries without end, due to Hades fear of retaliation by the Olympian Gods, first and foremost Zeus from whom Chrys powers could signify an end to his own rule. But Chrys is lonely and bored, even the most glorious palace is not better than a jailcell after a couple of millennia, she longs to visit Earth, and thus when she finds Huntley, who he keeps as a tutor/pet looking for stories about the earthly realm and all its wonders, and then that faithful day comes, when one of the periodical visits of her mother ends on a big fight, and she decides that she have enough, she is going to the living realm, just for a couple of day, nobody will notice, right? Long story short… they do, and the Gods don’t take these kind of things lightly.
Dani Hoots constructs a very appealing Greek mythical world, populated by interesting denizens: Gods and Goddesses, Demigods, Titans, immortals, underworldly creatures. The story is a fast-read, easy to follow, with a good balance between world-building, story-arc, character development, action and romance.
I really enjoyed this book. It was well written and the characters and story were well developed. I love the individual character personalities and seeing their relationship dynamics alter and evolve through the book. The story was full of twists and turns. There was action, suspense, intrigue and emotion. I’d highly recommend this book and look forward to future books in this series!!
I received an arc for a voluntary review.
