It's 2020 in Athens and we're still living the same stories that happened centuries ago. Only that this time, the gods are the rich kids and their power is money: they think it gives them the right to meddle in other people's lives.
This is a collection of short stories that reimagine Greek Myths in the modern world. You'll see Icarus flying too high- on an overdose, and you'll see gangs fighting on their streets, going by the names of Trojans and Greeks. Love and tragedy don't change, but these stories are now played against a modern backdrop of technology and tall skyscrapers.
*inspired by the Modern Myths photosets that were really popular in tumblr back in 2016!

A Rule That Never Breaks
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.Complete
