    Further Adventures of Odysseus Series

    By Richard Quarry

    About this series

    When the Egyptian goddess Hathor geeks out and turns into a flying, fire-breathing lion determined to eat the world alive, Isis and Thoth decide that only the Greek hero Odysseus possesses the cunning to outwit her. So they send a time-storm around to collect him. They even throw in a balloon ship to update his transportation. Which does however contain one trifling caveat: the crew consists of Amazons with a seething hatred of all males, and a mad teenage shaman whose visions call for offering their goddess parts of him he's grown rather fond of.

    A game of turn-about's-fair-play ensues as Odysseus, his captors, mad Queen Nefertiti, and a crew of time-stranded Vikings race each other down the Nile to reach the temple of Hathor at Dendara, each hoping to turn the berzerker goddess to their side — if she doesn't fry them first.

     But after a jaunt in the Egyptian Underworld, Odysseus gets a better offer from Set, the God of Evil.

    The kind of offer you can't refuse.

      (Previously published as Man of Pain by Richard Quarry) The Golden Apples that keep Odin, Thor, and the other Norse gods immortal — and sane — have been stolen by Gullveig the Gold-Witch. But the Aesir are too weirded to care; they're getting their jollies chasing after an enchanted treasure guarded by the poison-spouting dragon Fafnir. So while the gods go ga-ga Gullveig and the evil Loki form a conspiracy with the Dark Elves (no, not the unisex and flower-power kind) to depose the Aesir and rule the world. Sensing Ragnarok skate-boarding down the Rainbow Bridge, Odin plucks the balloon ship containing Odysseus and his female captors from the sky. For only the wily Greek can outwit such a devious pair as Gullveig and Loki. When Odysseus demurs, Odin hangs him upside down from the world tree Yggdrasil for a few days and plucks out an eye to help him get his mind right. Freshly motivated, Odysseus sets off on Gullveig's trail. To help keep him on task, Odin proclaims Taranga, the head Amazon, an honorary Valkyrie. He even gives her a flying horse, the better to keep tabs on the wily Greek, whom she is oath-bound to carry back to her oceanic goddess for sacrifice. Join the pair on a new odyssey of high adventure.
