Author’s Note
I’m serializing the first part of my novel The Art of Killing Gods, Book One of The Broken Pantheon.
Seventeen chapters. One per week. No paywall.
The full novel releases on July 14, 2026 (preorder here!).
The prologue awaits below → Go on…step into the pantheon.
“One of the book’s strongest features is its voice. The gods speak and act like people who have lived far too long and know it.” — BookInform
A Note Before You Enter the Pantheon
This is not a dusty retelling.
The Olympians still exist in the 21st century, but they are not what they were in the epic poems. Belief has eroded, systems have calcified, and the divine have adjusted to market conditions.
At the center of this story is a question:
When gods begin to lose control, who decides what replaces them?
A Note on Content:
These chapters are part one as it publishes week by week. The novel continues through line edits and proofing before the release. What you’re reading is the story, but names, lines, and small details may change. If you spot a typo, it may already be fixed in the manuscript I’m polishing for print!
Also, nothing here exists for spectacle. Everything exists because systems don’t collapse gently. With that being said, this story includes:
Violence
Grief and generational trauma
Coercion and divine manipulation
Power struggles that feel uncomfortably familiar
Take your time. Even immortals need breath.
Prologue: On the Matter of Twelve
Recorded but Not Heeded
They warned us, of course. There is always, always a warning. A scrap of verse. A whisper from a Fury? A footnote, perhaps, in a ledger no one bothers to read until the world is already burning.
Something about twelve. And a mortal who refused to behave as mortals should.
We laughed. Because we always laugh.
When you have been immortal long enough, even warnings begin to feel like theater. Something staged for the benefit of lesser beings.
It wasn’t.
