    About this ebook

    RAGE OF A DARK QUEEN

    The Second Book of The Last War of Gods and Men

    In an ancient world of gods and heroes, the threat of war is rising…

    From the city of Trachis, near the pass of Thermopylae, three kings set sail for the holy island of Asteria and the gathering of kings called by the twin temples of Apollo and Artemis, intent on foiling the plans of Atreus, king of Mycenae, who seeks dominion over all the cities and kingdoms of the Aegean sea.

    To the north, in the shadow of Mount Olympus, the hero Heracles looks to free the besieged city of Elone, joining forces with the Centaurs to wage war against the combined armies of Lapith and Dryopes warriors, who under the command of the Strategos Coronus have been ordered to destroy the city of the Hellenes.

    While Hera, the outcast Queen of the Gods, strives to raise a new god to cast aside the old, and will sacrifice the immortals of Pelasgia to achieve her goal. Yet all the while the question remains, where are the other Olympians?

    Against a backdrop of war and betrayal, a young man will struggle to understand the power of the gods, and his role in the struggle to come.

    And if they are not careful, the Dark Queen will sacrifice all to chaos.
