Synopsis

What if mythology isn't myth? The ancient Greeks told fabulously detailed stories involving unbelievable creatures—monsters dominating all tales from that time. Were they just highly imaginative, or was their inspiration from somewhere else?

Doctor Talbot Harrison, a professor in archaeology, receives a phone call one day which will destroy everything he perceives as reality. His brother has been mysteriously killed and within moments the United States military appear at his door, literally dragging him from his home. Thrown into a helicopter under intense armed guard, it doesn't take long until they are attacked by something which cannot possibly exist, something drawn to destroy the one man who can stop the beasts from a land beyond Hades . . .

I had been looking forward to reading this book due to the combination of the cover art and the synopsis firing up my imagination, and to a reasonable extent it lived up to what I expected. The story could be described as Indiana Jones meets Clash of the Titans, sprinkled with a bit of Doctor Who. T......more

To call Luke Romyn’s “Beyond Hades” a thrill ride would be an understatement. His mashup of Greek mythology and science fiction took me to so many dimensions in such a hurry that the only metaphor I can come up with is riding a roller coaster. It’s quite a rush.
