The Shadow of the Gods is a story set in a Europe in the far distant future, where people calling themselves gods have ruled since time immemorial. In a sleepy village far from the splendour of Olympus, a teenage boy named Alexias Makris wakes up one morning, prepared for another day of hard labour in the fields, not knowing that this day would change not just the course of his destiny, but of the destinies of everyone inhabiting Alexias' broken world.

Whisked away from his home to magnificent Olympus, home of the gods, Alexias becomes a servant, but there he is swept away into a word of political machinations and total upheaval in the world of the gods.
Zeus, an anchor of stability and the implacable leader of the gods has disappeared.
With every god clambering over one another to get the top chair, the people are ignored, and, for the first time since the distant past, the gods' power is threatened,
For when Kings clash, all of the land feels the tremours.

*to be edited: please excuse any continuity errors and / or mistakes in regards the writing quality of Hades* Ellie is just like every other normal eighteen year old girl in the world, except for one big reason. She's the daughter of Hades. And an immortal goddess in charge of managing suicide in the world. And she's been locked in the darkness of the Underworld for her entire life. So basically, her life couldn't get any more abnormal if she tried. Ellie longs to experience life like everybody else her age, but for as long as she can remember her parents haven't let her travel up to the surface, and she's been forced to imagine the upper world through the stories her mother told and the books she read. Until, one day, her parents finally give in and let her go up to the surface to see the world through her own eyes, and her world explodes with colour. Then, just when she thinks her life couldn't get more exciting, she stumbles across a very particular green-eyed god; one who throws her perfectly organised world into complete chaos and shows her what it means to live in the light. But what Ellie doesn't know, is that the Fates have a prophecy for her. A prophecy that she couldn't escape if she tried. A prophecy that has tangled it's gnarled fingers into the threads of her life, and may just throw the world into the darkness Ellie has spent her whole life trying to escape. "He's the son of Aphrodite, she's the daughter of Hades. He's light, she's the oncoming darkness. He advocates for love, she's the embodiment of death. What could possibly go wrong?" (Third book in the "Hades" series)
