Transgression!: A Mythological SciFi Adventure
The curse was never just in the blood and, now, it's breaking the world
Orestes has come home. Disguised as a stranger, sheltered by sacred law, and driven by a divine command he cannot silence-he has returned to Mycenae to do what the "god" Apollo, demands. He must:
Kill his mother.
Kill her king.
End the line.
The House of Atreus was never just a family. It was a system built on vengeance, obedience, and the ancient lie that violence and justice are the same thing.
Now the system is collapsing and, potentially, taking everything else with it.
The wells are failing. Stone itself lose coherence. Refugees flood the gates. Kingdoms crumble from famine and suffering. And beneath the palace, an ancient machine is stirring once again. Ancient, patient, and hungry. It feeds on centuries of grief, turning fear into rage and doubt into murderous certainty. It has shaped every atrocity his bloodline ever committed.
And, now, it is shaping him.
As innocent children are drawn into the heart of the curse and prophecy closes like a trap, Orestes arrives at a truth more terrifying than fate itself:
The gods have their commands.
Tradition has its demands.
And the machine has its logic.
But the choice... the only thing that truly matters... that is entirely his.
Perfect for fans of:
Madeline Miller's psychological depth and Euripides' brutal moral clarityGreek mythology retold without a Disney-like sanitization of the moreunpleasant parts of the historyStories with dark philosophical complexityMorally fractured heroesEpic sagas where ancient history meets science fiction.Customer Reviews
