This is a book I deeply enjoyed, it has a mix of Greek Mythology and Fantasy. The authors created a plausible young Odysseus, it doesn’t feel out of place or character. Its Odysseus through and through, and for me that adds a lot of value to the story.Odysseus is a theios, “god-touched†awakened by Athena that offered him her protection. He was sceptic about the gods to later discover they were real and mankind is at their mercy. He’s also portrayed as idealistic, I would like to highlight his conversation with Bria about honor: “‘I thought Athena stood for honour.’ ‘Honour? No, she stands for logic, and logic has little place for irrational concepts like honour.â€Sometimes I felt as if the book goes in separate ways with Homer’s original story, nevertheless, the authors always manage to bring the story back to the original. It has a good ending and I look forward to the next book in the series.I received an advance copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Many Thanks to Canelo, David Hair, Cath Mayo and Netgalley for the opportunity.
Continuing on my historical fantasy kick, on the heels of Son of Zeus I now have fellow god-titled novel Athena’s Champion.After professing my love for Heracles in the earlier review, this follows the early exploits of another favourite, Odysseus.For those who’ve read the Iliad and the Odyssey, or those who haven’t, some scholars believe the two stories to be social parables, detailing change in Greek society, and their argument is not without merit. Having read Athena’s Champion, the author also echoes some of those changes. .We meet a young Odysseus, on the day when his fate will be announced by the oracle. Needless to say, it does not go according to plan, and Odysseus is forced to leave his home of Ithaca for the wide world beyond - and boy are his eyes opened. The times are changing. Some of the heroes of old are still kicking around, and they do not meet the standards of our young hero. We meet Theseus, for example, who is strong and brave, but also a drunkard, brutish and quick to anger, acting first and thinking later. Odysseus, on the other hand, Is short (by heroic standards), quick-witted and asks questions incessantly, much to the ire of the old minotaur slayer.This is no biography though. There is a plot here, and a fine one at that. In the vein of social change, the gods are at war too. Having maintained a tenuous alliance for millenia (or so), Zeus is making a power play for sole rulership of Olympus. Needless to say, the other gods take umbrage and fight back. With Zeus looking to consolidate his power (by gaining worshippers), the other gods fear they will fade away into non-existence like the gods of old. But the gods cannot interact with humans directly, hence they need us pesky mortals to do their dirty work on earth.Odysseus receives his patronage from Athena, which comes with heightened senses and skills, faster healing and so forth, but he’s still young, and takes a few beatings from the more experienced theloi (god-blessed)along the way. However,his smarts keep him alive and kicking, and our hero starts on the journey that will lead him to his famous Odyssey, which I’ve only mentioned about 30 times.Earlier I mentioned Son of Zeus,and this is very different in tone, far less dark, but also vaster in scope. The characters are great, from Odysseus and boorish Theseus, to the gods who are just as petty and cruel as the old Hercules TV show claimed. Even the future battle of Troy is set up as far more than an angry cuckold trying to maintain his ego. I really enjoyed this,and I’ve had some time to mull it over before I wrote this review. I’ve got to say, if I hadn’t already written my top 10 of 2018, this would definitely have made it.An epic 5/5 stars.
What a thrilling read ATHENA'S CHAMPION was. Odysseus has long been a favorite hero of mine and when I saw this book and read the blurb did I just knew that I had to read the book. The book is action filled and I love how David Hair and Cath May right from the start make Odysseus life miserable. Well, that sounds bad, but just think about his little trip home from Troy that lasted a little longer than expected. Odysseus discovery about his heritage at the beginning of the book and all the obstacles, later on, will just show that he's on a road to more obstacles in the future...I really liked this new take on Odysseus life. How he learns more about the world and about the Gods. Not to mention all he learns about himself. I like how the myth of Prometheus is added to the story and the struggle between the Gods for power. Poor Odysseus is but a pawn in the hands of Athena, but he proves quickly that he is very cunning.As a big fantasy fan historical fiction fan was this book a real winner for me. David Hair and Cath Mayo have written a great book that makes me eager to get the next book in the series. I was a bit worried that the book would end up with a cliffhanger, but I found the ending satisfying. This is definitely a book to read if you like Greek mythology and/or historical fiction about gods and heroes.
Thank you to NetGalley and Canelo for the eARC in exchange for an honest review!I absolutely loved this book! I may be biased because my name is Athena and I love anything related to mythology and Greece, but this was also a great story.The description briefly states that the book is "The first in a thrilling new historical fantasy series; Odysseus must embrace his secret heritage and outwit the vengeful Gods who would control or destroy him… "Enter a snarky version of Odysseus, Theseus, and the Gods and Goddesses in the authors' unique interpretations, and you have quite an interesting story. I especially loved how they portrayed Athena and Hades.I had to suspend the known story at times and take their telling for what it is, but the book was still terribly entertaining for me. I liked the splashes of Greek words and especially insults thrown into the dialogue, but wish they had kept to traditional insults vs bringing in so much modern day slang.This book earns a solid 4/5 stars, and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone who likes a good history, mythology, or fantasy based read!
