Description

Captain Ayden Zeus commands the prison ship Olympus. His only mission is to roam the deep recesses of space, never visiting the same place twice. He and his crew have sworn an oath to guard what’s stowed away with the palladium-laced titanium hull at all costs: two thousand of the galaxy’s most violent offenders, each carefully catalogued and preserved in state-of-the-art stasis chambers, serving out multiple life sentences.

Mercenaries attempted a prison break, setting the Olympus adrift. The crew’s only chance for survival is a small blue planet in the Terran system. But the planet’s gravity field quickly pulls the powerless ship in, and it ultimately destroys the ship upon entry, scattering both crew and cargo across the planet’s surface.

Zeus and his pantheon, marooned on a primitive planet, confront challenges that compel them to navigate the fine line between survival and keeping their oath. Cut off from the rest of the civilized galaxy, with their closest reinforcements light-years away, the crew of the once mighty ship must band together to recapture any surviving prisoners before they can carve a path of carnage across ancient Greece.

Thank-you to NetGalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for my ARC copy!

4.5 ⭐️

This book was such an original book! What an awesome take on Greek Mythology!

I loved the way the author described the characters and the attitudes he gave them. I like how the characters formed deeper relationships with each other through the book and how they ended up working together.

The plot line was an epic, fast paced plot. There was not a dull moment.

I did think that the introduction to the book needed to be better. We were just dropped right in to the action and it was a bit disorienting.

I loved that this book was all action and how it kept you on your toes. There were definitely some things I did not see coming!

The writing style was nice. It flowed excellently and was such a quick read. The author really made you feel like you were there. I really enjoyed it.

Overall, this was an excellent book and I really hope there will be a second one!
