DESCRIPTION:
S Martin said Kyros Doesn�t Have Much of a Secret. I originally purchased this book because the idea behind it intrigued me. I was crazy about Greek mythology as a child. I figured a romance involving greek gods, would be interesting. I was sorely disappointed. There were a number of issues with the book that bothered me.From the start I had problems. In the first few chapters Ares sets up his petty revenge, Thera is impregnated, and Kyros' secret is revealed. The only thing remaining is getting Thera to figure out his secret, which she doesn't even try to do. She spends more time being upset he's gone.One of my most serious problems is the whole one dimensional god idea. Ares is. Greek mythology makes a great backdrop for romance! Barbara Deane Kyros' Secret, by Elizabeth Rose Review by Barb Deane, Barb's All Romance Book StoreNew author Elizabeth Rose's second book, Kyros' Secret, is being published by New Leaf Books in November. Unlike Elizabeth's first book, Eden's Garden, which was a contemporary set in the Chicago area, Kyros' Secret is more of a paranormal based in Greek mythology.

The hero, Kyros, has been cursed by Ares, doomed to spend days as a mortal man and nights as a Centaur (half man/half horse). Kyros' Secret is, obviously, not your. A Sparkling Offering from a Bright New Star A Customer A hero with a dark secret. A goddess, stripped of her powers and thrust, alone and unprepared into the world of humans. A contested crown. A brewing war. And over it all, the gods of Mt. Olympus, constantly stirring the rich mix of emotions and events, as they struggle to achieve their own ends by any means possible. These are the elements that make Kyros' Secret a compelling, entertaining read.New author Ms. Rose is a gifted story teller. In Kyros' Secret, she continues the tradition she started in her debut novel, Eden's Garden, as she weaves a tale full of twists and turns, love and adventure, which will keep you reading long
