Gods and the Dust Joshua Rivoli

Greek mythology is stranger than you might think. This dramatic fantasy novel collects many stories from the ancient sources and strings them together as one fluid plot, fleshing out the sparse details for a modern audience. At the dawn of time, the Earth and Sky mated to populate the world. Their most powerful children are the gods and goddesses - living personifications of all things great and small, physical and conceptual. These powerful deities have human emotions that drive them through an interconnected string of relationships and misadventures, dispensing wrath and favor in equal measure, resulting in murders, love affairs, offspring, and wars.
