The Greek Gods of Olympus: Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, Hades, Artemis, Hephaestus, Athena, Hermes, Ares, Dionysus, Aphrodite, and Apollo. The most powerful beings in the universe, they say.
Destruction and conflict is a high price for power, and it's one the Olympians know all too well. Eons of war, disease, and disaster among mortals have proved fruitful in securing the immortal hierarchy with gods on top, even at the devastating cost of their children's lives and Gaia's health. But at what point do these efforts peak in utility and usher in the beginning of Olympian extinction? All empires must fall eventually, after all...
One summer solstice, a new being joins the playing field, destined to revolutionize the balance of power as a daughter of Olympus and savior of the universe. Will she fulfill her fate as prophesied or make her own path? No one knows, not even the gods...

This book is an original work of literature created by me within the canon of Percy Jackson & The Olympians. The story takes place decades before the events of The Lightning Thief, acting more as a prequel for the series. As such, it is Olympian-centric, though Percy will appear in later works. Any thoughts or ideas that resemble other works are purely coincidental.
