I finally found the time to be able to finish this book, hard to do when my little one is sick.Although it was hard to get into in the beginning, it didn't disappoint. I was rewarded with an adventure unlike no other, that I've read to date. The characters are hard to understand at first, at least to me, but as you read further on, things become much clearer.
I love Pallas and her innocence, Othello I'm still in limbo over. Read the book and find out why. I do hope to find some type of romance between Pallas and Oliver, as I really like him.
Overall, I enjoyed this book and didn't want to put it down. I can't wait to read the next book titled "Whom the Gods Destroy".
Thank you D.C. Belton for this adventure!

You know those books that you just don't wanna put down? Not because there's something exciting happening in the story or it is a good story...not only that but mostly because the writing flows and the story is being told so smoothly that you just read on and on. This book was such a book.
The parts I loved the most began when Pallas is aboard the ship and meets the crew. Their humor, lightheartedness and loyalty towards each other made them lovable.
I also liked that we're set up to hate Elena in the beginning of the story but we find out she has more depth and understands political intrigue much better than her younger sisters give her credit for.
Othello, I feared and hated just like I was supposed to. Even when I laughed at his antics, I wasn't less creeped out by him!
About the gods and their machinations a) I'm not yet sure if they're actually deities and not humans who know what opposable thumbs are, b) they just don't care whose life they ruin, do they? Even Pallas who claims not to believe in gods & goddesses can't escape their schemes!
Pallas keeps mentioning how her father must miss her and I couldn't shake the feeling that there's something wrong there. Poor Pallas!
What would have made the book even better was a little more world building, maybe? Or a map, so we could understand what this world is like even better.
I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the next one in the series. The Gods Among Us speaks of the different gods and goddesses and follows the adventures of Pallas a young slave.
The start of the book was a little hard for me to follow simply because there was so many different people, gods and goddesses to take in. However the book soon pulled me along on Pallas's adventure.

The start of the book was a little hard for me to follow simply because there was so many different gods and goddesses. However the book soon pulled me along on Pallas's adventure.
The story follows a 16 year old drone by the name of Pallas. Drones are the lowest station of humans and there job is to feed the gods. Pallas is causing or finding trouble everywhere she goes in this story, but she stands up for what she believes in. She is much smarter than the other drones in the story because her father taught her various things that no other drones really understands. She later learns to read and is schooled on how to act among the more noble class of people.
Pallas lost her mother to the sea when she was younger and she blames Aegeia (goddess of the sea) for it. On her 16th birthday she is strolling on the beach wishing to escape when she sees something floating in the sea. She decides to swim out to see what it is and her life is never the same. She makes it to the egg as she calls it and climbs in with the help of some dolphins. There she meets a cat named Othello who is able to talk.
Othello and Pallas have many adventures in this book and encounter many dangers including Pallas almost becoming a sacrifice and later is believed to be the one to fulfill a prophecy "The Age of Aquarius". The book leaves you waiting for the next installment of The Divine Masquerade series called Whom the Gods Destroy.
Overall I enjoyed the plot and the characters. I wish we had been able to meet the father of Pallas. Also maybe in the second book we will find out more about Pallas's mother? I hope to see a little romance blossom in the next one also. I like the cover on this book. I liked how the book ended. It left you ready for the next book but it did not leave this book unfinished either.
Source I received a copy of this book from the author to provide an honest and fair review.
