Volume one of The Modern Myths And Mayhem Saga.
Cern is a barista in a campus coffee shop. Brunhilde is the beat cop who harasses him. When they meet a religious studies major named Percy, Cern's mundane life is turned upside down... Can the world survive their discovery?
2021 NaNoWriMo Winner, The Gods That Walk Among Us is the first of a series. It's an irreverent romp through classical mythologies in the modern world, and how old souls come to terms with religion, science, and technology.
Author's note: if you've been reading the story so far (or any of my other works), I send you my sincere thanks. This is a story that demanded it be told, and demanded that I tell it. If it likewise demanded that you read it, I thank you.
