Fantasy. Fiction. HTML:

THE GODS ARE BACK. DID YOU MYTH THEM? You probably saw the press conference. Nine months ago, Zeus's murder catapulted the Greek gods back into our world. Now they revel in their new temples, casinos, and media empireswell, all except Apollo. A compulsive overachiever with a bursting portfolio of godly duties, the amount of email alone that he receives from rapacious mortals turns each of his days into a living hell. Yet there may be hope, if only he can return Zeus to life! With the aid of Thalia, the muse of comedy and science fiction, Apollo will risk his very godhood to help sarcastic TV producer Tracy Wallace and a gamer-geek named Leiftwo mortals who hold the key to Zeus's resurrection. (Well, probably. Prophecies are tricky buggers.) Soon an overflowing inbox will be the least of Apollo's troubles. Whoever murdered Zeus will certainly kill again to prevent his return, and avoiding them would be far easier if Apollo could possibly figure out who they are. Even worse, the muse is starting to get cranky. Discover a world where reality TV heroes slay actual monsters and the gods have their own Twitter feeds.

The first dozen pages I did not think I would finish the book but once the plot gets going and the main characters take the wheel I started to enjoy it. It makes sense, if the book was just a collection of jokes it wouldn't have worked. The plot is interesting and fun(ny) and so are the characters. ( )

Zeus is murdered and the gods come out of hiding. But, he might not really be dead.

I just couldn't stick with it. ( )

This was a fun book! Greek mythology mixed with modern urban fantasy. Nearing the end, after his return from (partial) death, Zeus creates a new god from a sundae to help him win a war against the other Olympians and the Titans.

"I am shock and awe with a cherry on top! I am your frigorific doom!” said Baskin. This pretty much says it all about the story... ( )

Zeus Is Dead
A Monstrously Inconvenient Adventure
By: Michael G. Munz
Narrated by: Travis Baldree
This is an Audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
What a hoot! My cheeks are sore from smiling for hours! This was such a clever, snarky but not annoying, funny look at what life would be like if the Greek gods lived with us today. It is well thought out and so unique! It is so crazy, you don't know what will happen next.
I am convinced that the author is the brain spawn of Mel Brooks and Monty Python! This book is creative chaos in a genius fashion...lol! It kept me interested from the very beginning to end! It was a wild and crazy ride but I loved every bit!
Travis Baldree performed all the fabulous voices and made the story even better! He kept all the strange characters and their bizarre ways straight, I don't know how, there were a lot of characters. Comedy is not easy to do and make it come out funny but he was spot on! There were laugh out loud scenes and giggle scenes but most of the book I was truly smiling! Loved this book! ( )

I dedicate this book to my parents, who gave me my first book on mythology.
Unless that was from someone else. Like Uncle Frank or something. It was a long time ago, so it's hard to remember. But my parents are pretty cool and supportive people, so let's go with them.
(No offense, Uncle Frank.)

Zeus watched his child stumble through a rain-drenched wilderness, the victim of a mudslide that had lamed an ankle and snatched a pack containing food, water, and a spectacularly nifty smartphone.
