In 1968, a chest containing seventy-six manuscripts was uncovered during the excavations of Pompeii. These were the Lost Books of the Library of Alexandria. Professor Matteo Dericci devoted his life to studying them-and reached conclusions that defied convention.
What if Classical Myth is more than myth: the surviving echo of another world's history?
A prequel to Gods of Olympus and a guide for idealists of all kinds: entrepreneurs, dreamers, daredevils and those preparing for a journey of self-discovery.
Even the gods can make mistakes-even the son of the Almighty Zeus.
If it were not for Heracles Naturson and his unwavering ideals, the world we know would never have come into existence. An idealist at heart, Heracles harbored grand dreams for his empire and was resolute in his quest to reshape the world around him, blind to the formidable obstacles that lay in his path. Longing, grief, and ultimately love-his journey toward greatness was paved with sacrifices. They were neither beasts nor monsters-the Lernean Hydra or the Erymanthian Boar-at least not in any literal sense. In this account, they represent the earthly challenges Heracles faced, which later transformed into symbols of his relentless battle against the odds. As he bears the weight of his crown, Heracles must confront the harsh realities of leadership while wrestling with the shadows of his past. Thankfully, he is not alone; the Thirteen Gods of Olympus are there to guide him-or are they? What happens when a person who seemingly has it all desires even more? The quest for self-actualization... But what if they are unaware of the layered complexities of existence, the lessons of the past, and the dynamics that shape their world?Will his actions lead to triumph, or will they plunge humanity into chaos? Join Heracles as he battles against insurmountable odds, seeking to carve out a legacy that transcends the limitations of his time. Discover the power of hope, courage, and the relentless pursuit of a brighter future.
