Eden

While legends abound of Hercules and his half-brother, Perseus, Zeus actually fathered another mortal child, as well-one whose impact on the world will be beyond measure-if she can survive long enough to fulfill it, that is.

Phaedra’s story has remained hidden-until now. Eden recounts the remarkable journey of young Phaedra as she struggles to navigate the war zone of gods, half-gods, monsters, and mortals beyond the beauty and safety of the only home she’s ever known. But there are other powers at play, above and beyond even Zeus. Soon Phaedra slowly comes to understand that she has been called by the One True God for a special task that threatens the current regime and paves the way for a new world-one that values compassion, mercy, justice, and sacrifice; one that builds on love, rather than fear. An epic fantasy that expertly blends Greek mythology with Christianity, Eden exposes the flaws of the ancient gods and goddesses-making them seem more real than ever before-and introduces you to the extraordinary woman who ensured the possibility of your existence.
