Summary
The Elysium's most luminous residents and frequent guests received an invitation for a tea party from no less than Queen Persephone herself. Gods, heroes, and the dead are expected to be there. What is not expected to be there is Apollo's still-very-much-alive son with Daphne, Peneia, whose presence will mean great consequences to himself and unfortunately to Patroclus, as the latter would soon find out.
The culmination of all the extra 6 stories (and the last work in this series).
PS: If you're new to the series and it seems too much to start (I get you) and you've just finished TSOA and all you ever need is a quick balm to the wound (or maybe you can't afford the cost of therapy like I do), you can start the first work in this series, "Hades' Receipt", and it should do the job (it's designed to be stand-alone). Just don't be too bold to head on with Theseus' Pentathlon after and stop there, because I'm afraid you won't be able to get out unscathed (unless you're into that and you want to be sad), then don't let me tell you what to do.
