Of Gods and Mortals

A Collection of Short Fiction

About

Two Novellas and Two Short Stories, previously digitally published or otherwise released independently, now collected together in print for the first time, including:

The Lion of Troezen

Ariadne and the Beast

King of the Lapiths

The Siren’s Song

From the conception of Theseus to Odysseus’s passage home in the aftermath of the Trojan War, this collection brings together the stories of three incredible women, and one forgotten son, oft overshadowed by the larger heroes and villains with whom their myths intersect, while exploring the depth of faith in themselves and the gods they both serve and defy as they claim their fates.

Fans of Madeline Miller’s CIRCE and Natalie Hayne’s A THOUSAND SHIPS will find the richly woven narratives of Aethra, Ariadne, Polypoetes, and Aglaope compelling additions to their collections of mythic retellings.
