As with all of the other goddess summoning series, I find that I am immediately drawn in by the premise of the tale. Gods and goddesses meddling with modern mortals, it only makes the imagination run wild at the possibilities. P.C Cast gives you a great mix of the two, giving you the opportunity to experience the what if. Out of the all of the characters, I think I love Artemis the most, she is just as you imagine a goddess to be, vain, arrogant and a bit of a b*tch but, as the story between the main protagonist Pamela and Artemis' brother Apollo unfolds, you get to see a whole other side to her (though she is still just as full of herself as before.)
The story typically follows Pamela who is in Vegas for work. Simulataneously you have a whole flock of Gods and Goddesses visiting the Vegas to experience a bit of the real world. An act of fate or more accurately the act of jealous and bitter god intertwines the fates of Artemis and Apollo with the unwitting human. Little do the three of them know that this one act of jealousy will change their lives forever.
If you are looking for a serious epic then no this isn't for you but if you want a lighthearted tale that explores the uncertain path of love and like me you love a good bit of chick lit then you will love this. I can't wait for the other books to come out just so I can read the rest of them and see what mischeif Cast has weaved for us. If you love a bit of greek mythology you might also like this too.
