Athena - Of The Abandoned: A Mythos Tale

by Jonny Capps

After the War of the Gods, Athena found herself a goddess without followers. Traversing the spirit world, she defends those who are lost between life and death.

When she meets a young girl, Cordelia, Athena realizes that there is something special about her. Listening to her story gives her a renewed sense of purpose. There is wisdom in justice, and Athena will not abandon her cause simply because her followers have abandoned her.

Along with her owl, Glaukopis, Athena aligns herself with the spirit of death. Exploring the aether and battling horrors which no living mind could withstand, they discover that something is wrong, and needs to be made right, even if it will cost her everything.

Darkness flees from the light. Lies are exposed in the truth. Death cannot stand against life - Athena will make sure of it.

About the author

Hey guys, I'm Jonny Capps. I write about stuff that never happened but totally might someday, and other stuff that will probably never happen, but should. My first book, Mythos: The Time after Oblivion, is an expansion of Greek and Roman mythology, with the Olympians reemerging in the 21st Century. I would love for people to start referring to its sub-genre as Ambrosiapunk, but so far, I'm the only one who does.

2.5 really
I listened because my daughter in law narrated it. I didn't care for the story although I liked the final line. The narration was very good! Great expression and different voice for each character.
