In a mythical world full of deities and monsters, a young warrior proves his mettle in battle, forging his legend on a quest for godhood. During his brief time in the realm of Theos, Luke has faced supernatural dangers and acquired magical abilities beyond imagination. Guided by the God Seed-an ancient artifact bonded to his soul-he walks among champions and the divine. But despite his extraordinary talents and loyal allies, he wears a mask that alters his appearance so those who seek the God Seed cannot find him and extract it. Meanwhile, war rages on the island that is Luke's new home. The Rebel, Tyrisa of Peles, has ruthlessly slaughtered Emperor Cyzicus's loved ones. Joining Heracles in battle, Luke conjures all the magic at his command to protect and defend Cyzicus's people. Within him, the God Seed insists he deliver the killing blow in order to absorb Tyrisa's incredible power. And he will need all the power he can wield for the contest that awaits him . . . The god Hephaestus is hosting the tournament of Olympus, an opportunity for the brave and the bold to claim glory and get a step closer to divinity. The competition will be fierce, the prizes otherworldly. Cyzicus wants Luke to participate in the games, as does the God Seed. But amongst the competitors are those who believe his disguised face marks him as a child of Poseidon, as well as his own friends, who find his personality and actions familiar. Should his identity be revealed, Luke will be at the mercy-and the wrath-of the gods.

A young man's death is only the beginning when he elects to pursue divinity in a realm where gods and monsters are all too real. Luke was your typical nine-to-five office drone when he was killed in a head-on car collision during his morning commute. Instead of going to heaven, Luke's soul is brought to a hellish realm on the verge of total destruction, where two supernatural beings soon engage in brutal combat. Defeating her rival, the victorious Arke prepares to claim her prize, the powerful God Seed. But the ancient artifact has plans of its own, offering to soul-bond with Luke, who accepts and flees to the world of Theos to escape Arke's wrath. There, on the island of Carim, Luke is guided by the God Seed to take possession of the body of a recently deceased fisherman and embark on quests that will help him ascend to godhood. But his resurrection does not go unnoticed. The elderly Nefkha has been charged by a pantheon of deities drawn straight from myth to locate a thief on the run. Realizing Luke is the one the gods seek, Nefkha strikes a bargain to keep the younger man's identity secret in exchange for help with a mysterious task. Now, to survive a manhunt orchestrated by the rulers of his strange new world, Luke must ensure Nefkha doesn't betray him?and learn how to wield a mighty relic desired by forces far beyond his imagination . . .
