Poseidon

He was born in darkness. He became the king of everything that moves.Before Poseidon ruled the oceans, he was a prisoner - swallowed by his own father, living in absolute darkness, with only the muffled sound of the sea to keep him company. That sound would change everything.Poseidon: Lord of Waves and the Deep is the complete epic retelling of one of mythology’s most powerful and misunderstood gods - told for the first time as a full coming-of-age journey across 22 action-packed chapters.Follow Poseidon through:• The Titanomachy - the ten-year war that shook the world to its foundations• The drawing of lots - and the moment he discovered the ocean was always meant to be his• The creation of the first horse, born from sea foam and Atlantic wind• The contest for Athens - and the painful lesson that power without wisdom loses every time• The rise and fall of Atlantis - built with love, lost through pride• His battles with Cyclopes, sea monsters, Titans, and Giants - and the enemies he carried inside himself• The relationships that shaped him: Amphitrite the queen who set her own terms, Triton the son who surpassed his father, and the siblings who were family before they were gods This is not the story of a perfect god.Poseidon made mistakes. He lost his temper. He built storms out of grief and sent waves where they didn’t belong. He loved people he couldn’t protect and failed to show up when he should have. He was, in every way that matters, someone you might recognize.What makes him worth following across 22 chapters and thousands of years is not that he rises above his failures. It is that he carries them honestly - and keeps going anyway.Perfect for readers who love:• Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan• Aru Shah and the End of Time• The Lightning Thief series• Greek mythology retold for young readers• Adventure stories with emotional depth and real consequences What makes this book different:Most mythology books give you the facts. This one gives you the feeling - what it was like to be Poseidon, to hold that much power and still not know what to do with it, to build something beautiful and watch it sink, to be a father to sons you couldn’t save and a king to an ocean you were still learning to understand.Each of the 22 chapters contains a minimum of 900 words of original narrative - not summaries, not encyclopedic entries, but full scenes with tension, dialogue, interiority, and consequence. This is mythology written the way great fiction is written: from the inside.For readers aged 8-12 and the adults who read with them.Written with careful attention to age-appropriate content while never talking down to young readers. The themes - responsibility, grief, making amends, the difference between power and wisdom - are handled with honesty and respect.The sea has been waiting to tell this story. It starts in the dark. It ends on the water, in the light, with everything that was always meant to be.Turn the page. The wave is coming in.
