Tropes Galore!

Tropes Galore!

"This book is dedicated to everyone who longed for a story solely centred on the Gods and Goddesses of Greek Mythology."

Throughout the years, I've noticed a plethora of retellings revisiting the mythos of the Trojan War, the Odyssey, and the adventures of the Greek heroes. However, I've always yearned for a story focused entirely on the drama-filled lives of the Gods alone.

Forget "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," I wanted to watch "The Real Housewives of Olympus"!

When I was younger, I devoured the old myths and found the gods seemingly an afterthought in many stories. Because the myths were written by men about men, the gods remained a mystery and left me wanting more.

With all the commotion happening on a mountaintop, I was never interested in the predictable 'Hero's Journey.' Instead, I wanted to know what Hera had for breakfast and, more importantly, what time Zeus got home the night before. Their sky drama had me hooked!

As I started writing my story in 2018, I felt compelled to stay true to the myths of the Gods. In my world, characters aren't simply black or white; they exist in many shades of grey. This doesn't make me dislike them for their faults; rather, it illustrates that people aren't purely good or evil—we encompass everything simultaneously. 

And for some, that concept is too frightening to grasp.

Now, on to the Tropes!

Love Triangle: Ares/Aphrodite/Hermes 😖

Sibling Rivalry: Ares/Hebe/Hephaestus vs. Hermes/Athena/Artemis 😏

Slow Burn: Hades/Persephone 🫣

Fated Mates: Ares/🤫 Hephaestus/🫢

Forbidden Loves: Hermes/Hera (it's kinda complicated 👀)

Touch Her & U Die: Ares/Hebe & Apollo/Artemis 🔥

Passions of the Gods is the first installment in a series of novels retelling the dark lore of Olympus.
