The Trials of Hercules: Book One of the Osteria Chronicles by Tammie Painter

Myths and heroes may be reborn, but the whims of the gods never change.

If you crave the mythological adventure of Clash of the Titans, and historical fantasy fiction by Madeline Miller, Bernard Cornwell & SJA Turney, you’ll love this captivating tale of revenge, honor, and betrayal…the first in a series that brings the legends of Ancient Greece to life as you’ve never seen them before.

Convicted of three heinous murders, Herc Dion is sentenced to a series of trials that will pit him against formidable monsters, push his physical and mental endurance to the limit, and deliver him to the edge of Hades.

Throughout these ordeals, Herc endures the brutal cruelty of Hera, the goddess whose hatred has blinded her to the near ruin of her realm and to plans that will spell the end of her existence. Realizing Hera has done everything to destroy him, will Herc risk his life to protect hers?
