The Gods of Olympus: Dark Myths Retold from Greek Mythology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781326211196)

Beauty born of blood. Wisdom sharpened by vengeance. Love that devours kingdoms. The Gods of Olympus is a haunting retelling of Greek mythology, where the marble statues of childhood stories crack open to reveal the darker truths beneath. From the abyss of Chaos to the halls of Olympus, the gods emerge not as distant ideals, but as beings of passion, fury, and endless hunger. Aphrodite bleeds with desire, Apollo's light blinds as much as it guides, Athena's wisdom cuts sharper than any blade, and Hades waits with a pomegranate in hand. Here, divinity is dangerous-and immortality comes at a cost. Perfect for readers of Madeline Miller's Circe and Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology, this book invites you into a world where gods walk beside shadows, and every myth hides a truth too heavy for mortals to bear. Remember: the gods were never kind. They were never safe. And they are not gone.
