Synopsis

In the heroic age, man lives under the shadow of imperial ambitions, both past and present. The perfect gods reign openly, and none dare question their motives, in fear of their wrath. Seeking power, Minos, an empire of man, has built a temple to the perfect darkness, and seeks to use it for an unspeakable purpose. The tiny fishing city of Athens suffers under the gaze of their eye, and mourns the cost of their bloody sacrifice. But the goddess Athena has a plan to save her city from their fate, and she has the means to execute it.

Is there a way out of the Labyrinth, besides the shaded path of death? Can love solve the puzzle of the mythos, and give the most surprising hero the chance he needs to save the people he loves? Can our heroes, with the love in their hearts and their lights in their hands, set the stage for a miraculous musical to invert the plans of the darkness, on a long chance and a song?

Yes! Love has found a way. Love has a plan. It only seems like no plan at all.

*A fresh retelling of the myth at the heart of the Greek mythos.

*Perfectly suited for fans of mythological fantasy and ancient Greek legends.

*Explores themes of identity, heroism, and the grand stage of life.

*Features rich and plausible world-building, bringing new life to Ancient Greece

*Ideal for readers of Madeline Miller’s *Circe* or *The Song of Achilles*.

*Part of the plausibility of the setting is that the people in that setting do not have modern hang-ups. They don't have the frame of reference to identify as such, but most everyone was some flavor of LGBTQ, because why not? If that makes you uncomfortable, don't read the book.
