La violence. C'est ce qui a marqué l'adolescence d'Alex. Tombé dans l'univers des gangs dans l'espoir d'y trouver l'argent qui lui aurait permis de sauver sa mère, il se remet difficilement de la perte de cette dernière, avec l'aide des Styx Riders qui l'ont pris sous leur aile. Mais pas question pour lui de rejoindre le club de sitôt : avant cela, il a convenu avec eux qu'il retournerait au lycée pour y terminer ses études secondaires. C'est là qu'il rencontre Cassie, une cheerleader dont rien ne semble pouvoir entamer l'enthousiasme permanent.

Sans cesse, ils meurent et reviennent. Sans cesse, ils vivent et dérivent. Les dieux oubliés de la mythologie grecque existent. Et ce monde leur appartient toujours... Brook peut l’attester : il y a pire que de mourir. Par exemple ? Se réveiller au cœur du désert après que Zeus l’a séquestrée pendant deux mois. Elle n’a plus aucun souvenir de cette période, mais elle est certaine que ça a un rapport avec la pagaille qu’il a semée en révélant l’existence des dieux aux mortels.

Born from a strange mixture of divine blood, severed genitals, and seafoam, Aphrodite washed up on the shores of Cyprus long before the emergence of her fellow Olympians. A figure who is as petty as she is relatable, she is not only a key deity of the Greek pantheon, but she is also a central figure in many of the myths we know and love. While it would be impossible to gather all the different stories related to Aphrodite in their entirety in one collection, this audiobook provides a nice, if modest, assortment of narratives that display different facets of this fascinating goddess.

Attempting to cover all the forms the "Goddess of Love" encapsulates is no small affair. The roles she played in romance, marriage, procreation, and all of the other desires of humanity were myriad, but the aim of this book is to paint a slightly different, perhaps more esoteric version of Aphrodite from the usual image of her in mythology books.

How had things gone so wrong? Caelyn's small hands, raw with broken blisters, were no longer able to grasp the oars. It mattered little that the wind was dying and the sky was almost clear. Without fresh water, they would not survive. Exhausted, she rested against the oar handles crossed in an X before her and sobbed, cursing the strange aversion that kept her from doing the one simple thing that might save them. But only for a few moments. She may not be stronger than her phobia, but neither was she weak of constitution and determination.

A mortal empath marked by the gods is pulled into a celestial conspiracy when an exiled angel crashes into her life—literally and mythically. Drawn to the angel’s luminous presence and haunted by visions that blur past lives with present danger, she uncovers a hidden war between ancient deities and modern prophets who would turn devotion into control. To stop a rising order from weaponizing faith, she must master a power born of tenderness, rage, and radical compassion—while risking the one thing the heavens forbid: a love that refuses to bow.

Petra Ambrosi feels what everyone feels—every joy, every bruise, every lie. In a world that rewards numbness, her gift is a dangerous kind of truth. When a trail of uncanny coincidences pulls her into a hidden war, Petra uncovers a secret older than myth: someone is bending fate to their will. To survive, she must remember who she was, claim what she is, and decide what her power is for—healing or dominion.

Roland Tankowicz hates Venus. The last time he went there, he died. So, no one could really blame him if he never went back.
