chinesemythology christianity egyptianmythology greekmythology japanesemythology legends mythology norsemythology polynesianmythology

So we've heard stories from around the world that pertained to certain cultures and/or religions. Some explain some crazy phenomenon, others explain how some things came to be. 
And the fact not many people now this is sort of shocking seeing how many myths and legends are the inspiration of so many things we love... and the source of many tropes.
So this book is dedicated to spreading that knowledge. 
Far warning though, because many these myths and legends were passed down through oral tradition, there may be a version of the story that's different from a version you may know. I do requests and it doesn't have to be just Greek. I'll do Norse, Egyptian, well any story.All Rights Reserved

Manufactured for sin (Blood of the Gods) by GizzyGreggarious

A Love triangle of ancient alien origins, this "pair" of 3 retired demigods (not a typo) take a romantic vacation to rekindle their potentially polygamous marriage. They embark to have a relaxing time, casual fun and couples nights at a fancy resort set in ancient times. None of that shit works out. This tale of warfare, murder, a struggle to survive and the meaning of love, sends these battered demigods into a world of bigger, badder, more vicious gods and monsters that will stop at noting for blood and vengeance, world domination and chaos. Through Egyptian, Greeco-Roman, Norse, Dane mythology and more, this trifecta of confused lovers must divide and conquer, kill and unite to get back home in what can only be described as the worst vacation that could possibly happen to them. Join them in faraway lands, ancient kingdoms and even actual hell, as they gear up for war and show what they are made of...mostly radioactive metals and blue goop, but also courage and love. WARNING: This version contains sex scenes. If you don't want that, but still want the love story and the violence, then check out Adrian Ozryth, for the cleaner version. Same story, no direct sex, and even the first book's cleaner version. Don't get left out, humans!

Shadows by LAKirkegaard

Some things you just can't avoid, like falling in love. As much as you try to avoid, or search for it, it always seems to find you, or elude you. It seemed to find me every corner I turned, and I always tried to avoid it but alas, for some unknown reason, it found me. I retell my story in this writing, my story of love, deceit, power, and loss. Would you join me if I told you I could give you anything? Even love? Tell me what you need and I will grant you what you wish for. But before I do, will you join me in the retelling of this story? And if you will join me, then watch, carefully, the Shadows.

Must the Flowers Die by sylvianturtle

Mia Tao's life in small-town South Carolina is ordinary. She dreams of studying fashion design in New York, and, occasionally, of kissing her best friend since childhood, Alex. Then Liam Morrison moves to town. Beautiful, intelligent, supportive, Liam seems like the perfect man. But Liam isn't in town by accident. Millennia ago, powerful sorceresses formed a coalition with nymphs to banish the gods back to Olympus for their cruel and destructive abuse of power. Now, Olympus is collapsing, and Liam, the demi-god son of a mortal and Artemis, has been tasked with re-opening the gateway between the mortal world and Olympus. If he fails, everyone on Olympus dies. If he succeeds, it unleashes the capricious gods to once again wreck havoc on the lives of mortals. This mission puts him in direct collision course with Alex, whose family are descendants of the sorceresses who expelled the gods and bound by duty and magic to prevent their return. As Mia begins to love Liam, she is pulled into a fated battle between two supernatural factions, with Liam on one side and Alex on the other. Alliances form and break as the creatures and beings long subordinated by human development rise to reclaim power and protect their own. Mia is not only torn personally, but also morally. In a situation where some must suffer for others to live, how does she choose a side?

I Got Stuck In My Favorite Webtoon by chibikc

I'm stuck in a Webtoon. Sounds cool, right? No. I should have watched Love Game in Eastern Fantasy a little closer instead of skipping through half the series. The only way home? Convince the dangerously handsome Legendary General to gift me one of his most prized possessions. Will I survive long enough to find my way back or will I lose myself in a story that isn't mine? *** This is a work of fiction that's set in a fantasy world. While inspiration has been drawn from various historical and cultural elements of Imperial China, it should not be considered an accurate representation of the history, politics, social order, spirituality, philosophy, or customers of those eras. Also heavily influenced and inspired by Love Game in Eastern Fantasy.

Troy, The Origin of Parizitis by CastorTroy389

Disclaimer: I do not claim to be an expert in historical characters, peoples, times, places, languages, & settings, nor does this have any historical relevance; I'm just a writer, retelling the story of the Trojan War in a biblical light. It's still a work in progress, so I will continue to write & correct my writing & any errors I made along the way. Inspired by Greek Roman & European legends, historical army formations, remixed with biblical themes, & an original vision of mine. Come & experience a retelling of the Trojan War in a Christian biblical light manner & POV, while keeping in touch with some of what was written in Homer's Iliad, Odyssey, Virgil's Aeneid, & other ancient writings, changing what was originally there, & adding biblical ideas to the story of the Trojan War. The story follows Priam's desperation for the wife he loves Hecuba to have a child. After hearing about Israel's Conquest of the land of Canaan & rumors spreading about their God amongst the commanders officers, he willingly sets out on a diplomatic mission to bring to the tribes of Israel gifts, going to Kedesh-Naphtali Priam comes into conflict with Sisera a Canaanite commander of 10,000 Canaanites & 900 chariots, meets Barak of Ephraim before he became a commander, & the prophet Deborah who led Israel at the time. The story continues on with the birth of Paris & how he came to be as a shepherd boy with his guardians Agelaus & Harpru, & his friends Ankenaus, Brutus, Francus, Achates, & Oenone to how he becomes the prince of Troy meeting his half siblings Deiphobus, Troilus, Hectoris, & others.

Danmachi Familia from Hell by Edard27

There are thousands of gods, hundreds of their attributes and rules that these beings establish in connection with their nature. Women who serve the goddess of purity will never offer themselves to any man. Children of the god of war will be the first to grab the sword in case of conflict. These who believes in lord of the oceans spend most of their lives at sea. What do the children of a god before whom other divine figures tremble in fear do?

Living a Lie by TheWereWolfinMe

A time back in ancient Greece, where gods and goddesses existed, there was a group of kids who had their true heritage hidden away from them. For they were not born of just Greek gods and goddesses, they also had parents of a different religion, whether it be Nordic or Egyptian. And that wasn't accepted in Greece, no that was something worth killing for. Sorry the description of this story is so crappy, I promise that it is a lot better than what the description entails. And I do plan on writing a sequel soon which will be ten times better than this one, I hope.

From Geneology to war - A compendium of Greek Mythology by AsterSxh368

A helpful guide to Greek mythology including the primordials, titans, gods, goddesses, monsters, heroes and more! Things to note about this story is that since I'm writing about real historical mythology, there is of course many, many, different variations, retellings and plots in existence for each one of the myths so I will do my best to comment on and add in variations when necessary, though in some cases I may just stick with the most common, my favorite or the most historically accurate depictions! "If this is just the original myths can't I just go on Theoi?" Well I try to recount all of the myths in an accurate but easy to understand way, which is quite difficult other places, though if you have any questions about anything, please just ask!!

A Rule That Never Breaks by MarieKJohnson

Ever since Paige was little, she's been able to see people's sorrow like a cloud hanging over their heads. Now it's coming in pretty handy in her job. Which is saving the world, obviously. Paige has never really belonged. Growing up in the foster system in Chicago would have been hard enough without seeing everyone's pain like a never-ending storm. It was better to be alone than to deal with that. But Ari, a student in her Classics class, is different. And when the roof of their classroom inexplicably comes crashing down, he tells her why. They're both distant descendants of the Greek gods. And the gods are angry. After millennia of being ignored and relegated to history books and Disney movies, the gods of Mount Olympus are wreaking havoc on earth as punishment for man's hubris. Ari and Paige travel to the mystical lands of Olympus to try the only thing you really can't do. Kill the gods.
