When I thought my life was over, Gabe, Fitz, and Ronan showed me it was just beginning.

All I ever wanted was to keep my sister safe and avoid the gods. But the day before I’m free, Zeus chose us to be sacrificed.

No matter how devout my sister's faith, I couldn't let her die. So I ran, even though it put our whole city at risk.

Fleeing the gods sent us into the jaws of their enemies, the dangerous rebels. They offered a choice: stay and die for the gods or take our chances with them.

I find new allies in Gabe and Fitz, young leaders in the rebel army. They train my body and my mind, forging me into a warrior while Ronan, the outcast, helps me unlock the secrets of my Promethean powers. This world isn't kind to love, and I refuse to choose—each of them holds a piece of my heart.

The gods above shoot to kill and I'm done living under their rule.

This is the first book in a reverse harem trilogy. It contains scenes which may be disturbing to some readers. This can be considered a new adult slow burn romance.

B.C. Palmer and Marie Robinson have co-written a brilliant and addictive novel with Under The Gods.

This is the first book in The Last Promethean series, which follows Artemis’s story, as her world is completely turned upside down. Artemis, Gabe, Fitz, and Ronan are kickass characters who battle against everything the Gods and life throws at them.

Under The Gods is a unique and captivating story which I highly recommend. Especially for lovers of mythology, reverse harem, YA/NA, a page turning storyline, all set in a dystopian world. I can’t wait to continue reading more about Artemis, Gabe, Fitz, and Ronan in Against The Gods.

Under the God is the first book in The Last Promethean Series and it was fantastic. This is a young adult reverse harem about Gods in a modern world! Our main character Artemis escapes death and joins the resistance, where she finds out she is a Promethean. With unexpected twists and turns along the way Artemis must train with the help of Gabe, Fitz and Ronan to save the world from the Gods. This book is well written, fast paced, action packed and grabs your attention right from the beginning and keeps you in suspense until the very last page. I highly recommend it!

Do you love mythology? Reverse harem? Awesome kick ass heroines and heroes that are searching for their purpose? Well, do I have the book for you! Under the Gods is fast paced and exciting, filled with Gods and stories straight from mythology. Set in a dystopian but familiar world, with a riveting storyline this book had me hooked from the start. Great read and totally different from anything else I've read. Brilliant.

This is an insanely good twist on the tales of gods and men. This isn’t your classic tale from on high on Mount Olympus but the gods trying to reclaim their former glory from a world torn apart.
A gripping story line that is refreshing and new. Some great twists from among the characters that leaves you on the edge of your seat.

I won’t tell what the payoff is, but if you’re a fan of American Gods, or mythology in general you’ll like it. The fact that it’s such a blasphemous concept really appeals as well.

The world that Palmer and Robinson have created is a fascinating one to spend time in, and I’m excited to see more of it.

This book was an awesome mix of mythology and post-apocalyptic adventure. I really enjoyed Artimus and her development.

You gotta read it.

This is more of a 3.5 than 4. I find myself liking the story 1 minute and then suddenly feeling frustrated with it. It’s both post-apocalyptic and old world gods. I finished the book feeling like there were frayed ends. Too many bits not coming together. Hopefully book 2 will clear up my confusion

I found this book to be very jarring. To be reading about Greek gods and such. But there are cars and other modern stuff.

This book was a really good twist on the different gods and what might happen if they were to go against each other. It was good story line a little slower paced then what I was expecting but over all really good! I look forward to seeing what happens next.
