Produktbeschreibung

In the wake of a nuclear war, the Graeco people emerge from Gaea's womb to discover humanity's destruction of the planet. Horrified, they react by stripping countries of power, confining survivors, and overseeing recovery efforts. Looking to the Vatican for leadership and support, the remaining humans grow closer to the Graeco, but the religious leaders are determined to keep the populations segregated. Those in favor of diversity are swiftly punished. But there is a rebellion afoot. A biracial faction emerges and is prepared to fight for their freedoms. With the lingering threat of war in the air, King Zeus V, the Graeco sovereign, is their only supporter, as he has chosen a human wife who has blessed him with a daughter named Artemis. But because of Artemis' mixed race heritage, the Temple of Delphi demands she be treated like the other biracial children. Artemis is forced to flee Castle Olympus and search for answers. While on the run, Artemis finds hope in a Catholic priest but is also sought after by a young resistance leader to enlist her to join their cause. But who is on her side and who is standing in her way? As prophecy unfolds, Artemis must decide whether to fulfill her destiny before the last battle ends it all. Offering a diverse world that lovers of fantasy will readily immerse themselves in, Artemis of Dodekatheon explores the many facets of racial conflict and highlights the consequences of ignoring relevant lessons from the past.

Autorenporträt

Born the eldest of three to a naval aviator, J. Alleyn Winchester grew up listening to his father play music he wrote on his guitar before reading bedtime stories from the Children's Book of Virtues, Aesop's Fables, or The Chronicles of Narnia. The bedtime ritual inspired him to write my own stories. In high school, he discovered his pagan faith. He fell in love with how myth and lore inspired generations of cultures and studied storytelling from a literary, theatrical, and spiritual perspective. He expanded his skill set in college with theater arts and animation and has been spinning numerous tales of adventure and fantasy through his online platforms around the globe ever since. He is married to his high school sweetheart and muse. They hope to spin stories together for children of their own some day.
