I give this book 3.5 stars (good but not a keeper) because of the strongly mixed feelings about it.
Generally speaking for someone to pick up the 26th book in the series and figure out much of what is going on is not exactly easy book to write. Kudos to the author for being able to pull it off. Good back-story on Max and the Omegrion in general. Some dropped information on Savitar and some parts of ancient history. The storyline is about mates who've just been separated forever and working on a reconciliation due to some really idiotic notions the Dragonswan/She-Mate had about her Animal husband... There is some high level action after all the talking, and all the flashbacks (which were rather well pulled off). And obvious setup for future books, and some good higher-level drama. The attack on Olympus and the twist end.
(Spoiler: Older brother forgives Max and saves his life using the article he protects but is sworn not to use. And the youngest brother gets duped by Apolo (who is now a blood-bank stooge of the Galu) gets entranced by the promise of getting his dead mate back into fighting with the Galu to overthrow Zeus, so that the Amazon tribe can rule it.)
