Premise
The gods are back in town. Skyscrapers pop out of nowhere across Athens, and corporations rename themselves as Greek gods. This transformation began with the Greek crisis of 2009 and is set to forever change the world.
Inspired by Dan Simmons’ *Ilium*. Described as “Percy Jackson goes Sci-fi!”
Core Question
Can myths come back to life in the day of inter-connectivity and social media admiration?
