The Diaspora of the Gods

By Thomas Ewing

Chauncey Williamson is in trouble. He's about to graduate from Dartmouth with a Classics major, no job, no love life and no clue how to get either. And someone is manipulating him to sabotage both endeavors. A solution appears out of the rubble of a terrorist attack. He's been warned to never trust the Deus ex Machina, but hey, he's desperate. So takes a job unknowingly facilitating money laundering through an ingenious Music publishing business.

Learning he's descended from Greek gods explains but doesn't solve his problems. Fortunately, the Olympians have sent a guardian angel to help him. They're nothing like he thought. Since the bombing of the Parthenon in 1686 the Olympian gods have wandered the West, looking for a supportive home from which to support the arts, foster democracy and worship a power greater than themselves. They've operated out of Nashville since that city built a full-scale replica of the Parthenon in 1898 representing their roles in academia and supporting rock music. But they're having their own problems assimilating into the modern world, and Chauncey's nemesis plans to buy Nashville's Parthenon so he can destroy it and kill the gods who need it for maintaining immortality. But the Olympians have been planning a sting for 3000 years. And Chauncey is along for an adventure for the ages.

The Diaspora is the first installment of Chauncey's adventures protecting the gods while learning the real scope behind how Classical Mythology survived Europe's Middle Ages, what Williamsburg tavern keeper guided the American Revolution, and how Chauncey's supposedly boring parents helped craft one of Rock and Roll's most iconic lines..
