Book Detail
The original Olympians are gone.
Some truths unburden the soul; others chain it
In the heart of academia, Corey, an ambitious masters student, finds herself yearning for a life beyond the confines of dusty books and lectures. After making a fateful wish, Corey becomes a key player in a cosmic drama that unfolds following a reenactment of an Ancient Greek mystery cult dedicated the Demeter and Persephone.
Whisked away to the shadowy depths of the Underworld, Corey discovers a world teetering on the brink of chaos. Dark forces loom, and with ancient Gods perishing and others missing, Corey must navigate the depths of the Underworld, facing mythical beasts and unlocking forgotten truths to restore the goddesses of Justice, Memory, and Spring before true darkness can rise.
