We had a very special guest back in The Nerds Awaken studio! Elise Nelson was the first author we ever interviewed way (all the way back in 2021!) and we are thrilled to be having her back to talk about her new novel The Light in Hades, book 1 in the Olympus Retold series.
The Light in Hades is a powerful Hades and Persephone retelling, and we loved Elise's fresh take which delved in mental health, healing from trauma, and the power of love to make us stronger, without all the kidnapping and Stockholm Syndrome.
In this episode we heard from Elise about the inspirations for her story, why the forbidden love trope is so thrilling, and what's coming up next in the Olympus Retold series.
