The Judgment of Persephone by Giulia Calligola
Born in the 90s, university student, short and with lots of human friends: Persephone really has a terrible divine curriculum. Mortals don't worship her, Gods don't invite her to their mundane events, and all in all it would be fine for her. Or at least that is what she thinks.
Everything changes when at a conference she meets Hades, God of the dead and old-fashioned gentleman. He too has a heavy burden: three hundred thousand years of age, seven feet tall, at least twenty titles on his name. But he's also the only one who understands Persephone's passion for law subjects, as well as the only one who seems uncomfortable among the other deities as much as her. How couldn't they get along?
They find themselves intertwining their destinies and working together to issue a controversial judgment, collaborating in a trial of souls in the court of the Underworld. And so, halfway between irony and seriousness, fairness and rigor, life and death, this is the (semi) modern reinterpretation of a myth that has never stopped being told.
