Dionysus and Hestia: Rise of the Olympians

By Dennis Wammack

Dionysus and Hestia: Rise of the Olympians
After the triumphant slaughter of the Elder Titans by the Olympians, the Olympians are unopposed and unchallenged in their relentless pursuit of world domination and universal adoration.
Dionysus does what he can to ameliorate the coming storm. Haunted by the words of his slain Queen Kiya, Dionysus gathers those that he can to defeat the undefeatable as they covertly challenge the Olympians, led by Hestia, the oldest, driven child of Cronus and Rhea. The very survival of civilization is at stake. He was not entirely successful. This is the third book in the six-book series, The Beginning of Civilization: Mythologies Told True. For 200,000 years hunters hunted, gatherers gathered, they sometimes mated. Then something happened What happened was this: we got civilized. Scientific, political, and religious thought had to evolve as did sexual mores, perversions, attitudes, and, too, misogyny. New organizational systems were required. And gods took on lives of their own. This series is a fictional reimagining of mankind's protohistory as recorded by our original historians -- Moses, Hesiod, Plato, and ancient Egyptian Priests. The stories chronicles the lives of the people who inspired our myths and traditions. The narrative is unbroken as new protagonists and antagonists replace those who die. The books become more complex with ever-growing conflict and contain elements of science fiction. To understand why we are the way we are, we must understand how we began. This is my offering. Let those wiser than me tell it truer.
