Chaos: Molly's Odyssey: American English Version
Molly chances upon the town's hermit, in his backyard, battling Kratos, the God of War.
She triggers the magic on an axe that no normal person should be able to. And it is now put to her that Molly is a lost Olympian, trapped on earth, reincarnating as a mortal for hundreds of years.
With the aid of her new allies, Mr. Glover and his wife-dog (who is also an Olympian, but cursed to live on all fours), Molly sets out to discover who she is and hopes to reach her full potential.
But which Olympian is she?
Molly needs to work it out, and fast, because bad things are happening to those closest to her, and not even the local law enforcement can save her.
This begs the question, what did she do on the Other Side to warrant such unfavorable attention?
Lost & Found is the first book of the Molly's Odyssey series and sits at 55,000 words.
There are no themes of LGBTQIA+ in this story, however, it touches on peer bullying, building and determining relationships, finding one's place in the world, and navigating everyday life problems, as well as Olympian conflicts.
Molly is a fresh, honest voice, relatable to any young teenager. The reader gets to see all her flaws, and experience all of her triumphs.
This story is set in fictional America and written in American English.
Given this author wants to make reading as easy as possible for her readers, there is also a copy written in British English. The story is the same, but the spelling has been changed except for Molly still calling her mother 'mom'.

I really really enjoyed this book. Greek mythology has always been an interest of mine and this book really hits! I believe this is a pre teen book but was still a great read. I can not wait to read about any other adventures that Molly has. Thanks Gemma Goodwin for your hard work at writing this book!

This is a great read! Ideal for tweens and teens, but I can confirm that parents will enjoy it too as an easy read that hooks you in! Strong characters and a good storyline, coupled with some recognisable New Zealand places keeps you turning the pages - looking forward to more in the Odyssey series
