À propos de cet audio

The gods are back. Did you myth them?

You probably saw the press conference. Nine months ago, Zeus' murder catapulted the Greek gods back into public life. Now, the whole pantheon revels in new temples, casinos, and media empires - except Apollo. An overachiever with a bursting portfolio of godly duties, the amount of email alone he receives from rapacious mortals turns each day into a living hell.

Yet there may be hope, if only he can return Zeus to life! With the aid of Thalia, the muse of comedy and science fiction, Apollo will risk his very godhood to help sarcastic TV producer Tracy Wallace and a gamer geek named Leif - two mortals who hold the key to Zeus' resurrection. (Well, probably. Prophecies are tricky buggers.)

Yet, whoever murdered Zeus will certainly kill again to prevent his return. Can Apollo escape the murderer when he doesn't even know who they are? Can he do it before the muse gets cranky? Do the venomous bat-winged kittens terrorizing Nevada have anything to do with anything?

Snappy imaginative writing with great dialog, funny and exciting storytelling slaps around the forthwall

Fantastically ridiculous in the best of ways

As self-aware as Ferris Buller, as ridiculous as The Hitchhiker’s Guide, and as sarcastically satirical as the Canterville Ghost. The plot moves quickly enough to keep the wit from getting old, and very human characters to balance the parodies of archetype gods. Fun without slipping into offence or vulgarity.
The recording is good and the narration is well performed. The reader understands the pace and feeling of the writing and elevates it where a lesser delivery would become tiring.
Recommended.
