What if everything you knew of the gods was wrong?
Homer's story ends the way all do-in death.
In the Land of the Dead, Homer makes his way to Hades's obsidian throne room. Upon a glassy throne, Homer finds a queen wrapped in darkness with eyes as white as mist. She asks if he wants to hear the real story of Hades and his queen. Beginning Homer's new purpose-rectifying, in death, the stories he got wrong in life.
Hades doesn't want a consort, but Zeus is determined to bend Hades to his will. To keep the peace, Hades agrees to Zeus's demands. Telling the King of the Gods that Hades will allow the farce if Zeus allows Hades to give up after a year.
Kore moves amongst the gods and goddess of Olympus as all other "nameless" gods do. Demeter hates her only child and is content to keep Kore hidden in the shadows of society while heaping praises upon her perfect daughter, the Goddess of Spring. Kore wants more than Olympus and Demeter's overbearing hold. The decree from Zeus, posted in the university's courtyard, gives Kore the perfect opportunity to leave the suffocating world of Olympus.
At the ball, no one dares step forward as consort for the Ruler of the Dead. Only Kore. Kneeling before Hades, Kore says, "I will be your consort…"
All hell breaks loose, and the newlyweds who chose each other out of convenience have to decide if their love is one worth waging war for.
The King of Spring is the first of The Homeric Retellings, a series of retellings based on Collette Carmon's favorite Greek myths.
Come fall in love with the Hades and Persephone you've never met!
