What if Meg had to become a Greek god?
After Hercules proves he's a true hero and regains his godship, all seems right in the world. That is, until Zeus tells Meg that she can't be with Hercules because she's, well, mortal. Luckily, Hera has a solution, offering Meg a chance to prove herself worthy of a spot on Mt. Olympus--as a god. All Meg has to do is complete a mysterious quest.
The mission? Oh, just to rescue her ex's current wife from the Underworld. The ex-boyfriend she saved by selling her soul to Hades. The ex-boyfriend who immediately moved on to someone else while she was stuck in the Underworld. Can Meg put her past behind her and use her quick-wit to defeat monsters and gods alike, including the nefarious Hades? Will she finally figure out her place and contribution to the world? Or will her fear of commitment have her running away from an eternity of godhood with Herc?
Written by the author of Mirror, Mirror and Conceal, Don't Feel, Jen Calonita's latest twist is sure to delight and surprise.

My inner-Disney and -Meg fanatic had a glorious time with this one. Calonita stayed true to Meg's personality and even her inner thoughts were sassy, witty, and true. Ugh, I love it. At times there was a tendency to over-explain a bit, but I guess I could use a refresher on the Disney classic just as much as the next adult. Makes me want to go watch the film again. This book leans toward - of course - the disney side of things and less the greek myth side of things, but unless you're looking for an accurate reflection of greek mythology, this'll be a great fan-fiction like book for you.
WOW!!!!!!! That was FANTASTIC!!!!! Hercules was always one of my Fav movies as a kid, to the point where I think I accidentally killed our VHS copy of it XD So seeing Meg get so So much more of a backstory and more development was AMAZING!!!!!! I LOVED how she grew and changed as a person!!! I also REALLY Loved the ending!!!!!!!
It was okay and I'm a huge fan of Hercules but i got bored with this one
