A Hero and a Curse by Christopher Wild is a dark, epic fantasy novel that reimagines Greek mythology, bringing the gods and heroes of Ancient Greece into a new saga of divine ambition, political intrigue, betrayal, and an impending curse.

​

The first book in The Age of Heroes series explores a world in which the Olympian gods are driven by bitter rivalries, ancient grudges, and a lust for power. Zeus's rule faces growing opposition as alliances begin to fracture, the struggle for dominion over mortals intensifies, and the future of Olympus hangs in the balance.

​

Featuring multiple points of view, including Zeus, Hera, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Hades, and Heracles, A Hero and a Curse offers a darker, broader perspective on the Greek pantheon and its legendary figures.

​

For readers who enjoy Greek mythology-inspired fiction, mythological fantasy, epic fantasy, dark fantasy, and imaginative new interpretations of ancient lore, A Hero and a Curse begins a saga in which familiar myths take unexpected turns.
