Resumen del Editor

An alien pyramid has appeared on Earth, squatting in the middle of Chicago. It is growing, destroying the city as it does, and nothing seems able to stop it, not even the might of the US military. Somehow, the alien device is snatching people and for unknown reasons transporting them into worlds of mythology. Dr. Lukacs is one of the victims. Granted, he's an expert on mythology. But myths are not something he'd thought to encounter personally. Or wanted to! Sure, he has a couple of tough paratroopers along with him, as well as a blonde Amazon biologist and a very capable maintenance mechanic. Unfortunately, modern weapons don't work, and the Greek gods are out to kill the heroes.

Well, yes, they've got Medea and Arachne and the Sphinx on their side (both Sphinxes, actually, the Greek version as well as the Egyptian). And at least some of the Egyptian gods seem friendly.

But that can be a very mixed blessing, to say the least. Oh, and whatever you do, don't mention dwarf-tossing.

Contains mature themes.

what if you got to rewrite the Greek myths so they came out 'right'? here we get to see the whole Iliad in a new light. very smelly.

also gets to visit the Egyptian myth of .. I like seeing the Greek and Egyptian gods as real people. enjoy the journey.

Another great serious-comedy yarn

In this book, Flint throws his characters into a world where the myths -- specifically, Greek and Egyptian myths -- are all true. And not at all as Homer or your history teacher told them. Odysseus is an unpleasant wily putz. Medea is a wronged -- if extremely dangerous -- woman. Et cetera.
Oh, and modern equipment doesn't work. And there is no escape except by dying. Well, almost none.

Performance is adequate -- not in Pinchot or Rudnicki or Wyman class, but very good.

Silly story makes it hard to suspend disbelief

Wannabe Homer imagines alien device that descends on Chicago and starts sending people to a world where ancient gods (Greek and Egyptian) are real.
