The first book in the series is The Games Gods Play, and the third book, The Wrath Gods Reap, is slated for publication in November 2026. Our full deep dive episode on the first book is also available.During this episode, we discuss the mindblowing twist that we never saw coming, why we fall more in love with Hades in this book, how Iapetus might be our least favorite Titan, how we continue to be convinced Lyra and Hades are fated mates, why we feel like Rhea knows more than she’s sharing, and why this cliffhanger left us with more questions than the first book. Plus, we delve into theories, including why we believe other realms exist, why we’re convinced there is something more to Isabel’s death in Poseidon’s Labor, the importance of the broken fate connections, and our top two candidates for the Deceiver.Connect with Late Night Reads:Website: https://www.latenightreads.com/Instagram: @latenightreadspodcastTikTok: @latenightreadspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/LateNightReadsPodcast/Threads: @latenightreadspodcastEmail: [email protected]
