Book Review: The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter

The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter is a young adult novel due to be released on April 26 2011. The story offers a new and unique look at mythology and the nature of the gods. This is not simply a retelling of a classic myth; it is a complete new story with new aspects of the gods that we might otherwise know. The only thing Kate has ever counted on is her mother, who is at the end of a long battle with cancer. To make her mother happy they move back to the town where her mother grew up. Caring for her mother, trying to get through high school and sleepless nights due to nightmares has Kate on edge. Then a series of events leads Kate to meet Henry, who claims to be Hades, God of the Underworld and strikes a deal with him. She steps into a world of danger and hidden truths to prolong her mother's life, and possible save Henry as well. However, someone in the walls of Eden Manor might be out to kill her; life, death, love and growing up are at the heart of Kate's story.
