Pagan Passions

When the ancient pantheon of Greek and Roman deities descended upon modern Earth, the planet was reshaped overnight—skyscrapers became temples, war was outlawed, and even prudery vanished. In this altered New York, William Forrester serves as an acolyte of Athena, teaching a newly‑rewritten history while navigating a world where myth and technology coexist. His first class is interrupted by Maya Wilson, a striking student devoted to Venus, whose bold advances hint at the sensual and chaotic forces now at play.

Forrester soon finds himself drawn into a series of challenges that echo Hercules’s labors, each trial testing his devotion to wisdom against the alluring temptations of love, wine, and power. Enforced by the uncompromising Temple Myrmidons—religious enforcers who answer only to the gods—his journey blends suspense, mystery, and a playful logic to the supernatural. Listeners will be swept into a witty, high‑stakes adventure where intellect and desire clash amid a city turned divine.
