When I read Starcrossed, the first book, I was baffled by its popularity but kind of amused by all its blatant similarities to Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. My Spoiler-Free Thoughts: Goddess is the third novel in the Starcrossed trilogy, which I’ve been reviewing here because it kind of sort of uses the story of the Trojan War as a base from which to launch its own story. With worlds built just as quickly as they crumble, a goddess must rise above it all in a final battle to change a destiny written in the stars. Now Josephine Angelini delivers a thrilling conclusion to this epic trilogy of love, hate, revenge, and fate. Starcrossed and Dreamless are international bestsellers. Still unsure whether she loves him or Lucas, Helen is forced to make a terrifying decision, for an all-out war is coming to her shores. To make matters worse, the Oracle reveals that a dangerous Tyrant is lurking among them … and all fingers point to Orion. Uncertain whether to fear or revere her, the once-solid group divides. Her powers are increasing – and so is the distance between Helen and her mortal friends. She must find a way to imprison them once again, or risk unleashing immeasurable chaos. The gods’ thirst for war already has a body count – and Helen is plagued with visions of destruction.
