Description

At first glance, the Gods of Olympus are as different from one another as salt is from sugar. Despite their bickering, they share a universal bond, a thread of commonality that unites them.

They’re all jerks.

After a stint with the Olympic Bureau of Investigation, Plato Jones is through with the Gods and their political games. Against his protests, he’s drawn into a murder investigation, where the murderer’s targets are the Gods themselves.

Plato has cracked some tough cases: exposing cheating spouses, capturing treasonous heretics, hunting three-headed dogs. But this time he’s in over his head. How can he solve a crime that’s impossible to commit? And what chance does Plato—a mere mortal—have against something powerful enough to kill a God?

A Character Profile

Zeus:

Zeus is the King of Olympus, and President of the Olympic World Council. Ageless and wise, he has brought about a golden age for mortals and immortals alike.  Along with his brothers, Poseidon and Hades, Zeus is one of the most powerful beings in existence, if not the most powerful. He possess a plethora of superhuman abilities, which include immense strength and speed, invincibility, flight, enhanced senses, astral projection, regeneration, telethapy, telekinesis, shape-shifting, mind-control and  teleportation. But most notable is his ability to wield lighting. Having defeated the Titans thousands of years ago, Zeus believed that no one would ever become strong enough to challenge his rule. But when a God of Olympus is slain, Zeus and his fellow Olympians must face the most dangerous enemy they’ve ever known: mortality.

  1. Favorite? Do unicorns and mermaid count, even though I don’t think they are a who???

  2. Well definitely unicorns and pegasus since I collect them 🙂 Even have a tattoo 🙂 But I love the story about Cassandra and Apollo 🙂 My name means lots of things because of her, but my favorite is “Confuser of Men” Always makes me laugh 🙂

  3. Daniel Teets says:

    Aries is my favorite

  4. Chris says:

    I’ve always like Mercury/Hermes

  5. I love medusa! I imagine her as beautiful. So beautiful you can’t resist but to look in her eyes and be frozen solid. Makes me wonder if she has redeemable qualities. I can’t see her being totally good but not so damned.

  6. mrsmonnandez says:

    I like Hestia. I like that she keeps the hearth and home warm. I think it’s interesting that she stepped down when Dionysus became an Olympian.

  7. llh66 says:

    I like Theia: The mother of sun, moon & dawn. Her names is connected she with the words foresight & prophecy . Very interesting to me.

  8. Alisa Ables says:

    I like Artemis. Anyone that protects and loves animals is wonderful in my book.

  9. Ly says:

    Zeus- always fooling around.

  10. Amber says:

    Probably the furies… they seem to be keeping order and doling out punishments to the ppl who deserve them…

  11. While I love mythology and have a fascination with all of the mythological beings but I really like Apollo.

    Apollo is the God of light, music, arts, knowledge, healing, plague and darkness, prophecy, poetry, purity, athletism, manly beauty, and enlightenment. He is the son of Zeus and Leto, and the twin brother of Artemis. As brother and sister, they were identified with the sun and moon; both use a bow and arrow. In the earliest myths, Apollo contends with his half-brother Hermes. In sculpture, Apollo was depicted as a very handsome, beardless young man with long hair and an ideal physique. As the embodiment of perfectionism, he could be cruel and destructive, and his love affairs were rarely happy. His attributes include the laurel wreath and lyre. He often appears in the company of the Muses. Animals sacred to Apollo include roe deer, swans, cicadas, hawks, ravens, crows, foxes, mice, and snakes.

    All of that alone makes Apollo pretty awesome in my book.
