Coles Agamemnon Rising: A Mythological Science Fiction Epic at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Agamemnon Rising is the opening novel of the completed seven-book House of Atreus saga. A sweeping blend of Greek mythology, historical epic, science fiction, and dark fantasy that reimagines the legendary fall of Bronze Age Greece as humanity's first encounter with beings once mistaken for gods.
Before Troy burned. Before Agamemnon sacrificed his daughter. Before the greatest tragedy in Greek mythology... there was the family that doomed itself.
Long before he became the legendary King of Mycenae, Agamemnon was a hunted exile fighting to reclaim a stolen throne. Surrounded by betrayal, blood feuds, and rival kingdoms, every victory brings him closer to the destiny history says he cannot escape.
But history got one thing wrong.
The gods were never gods.
Apollo. Artemis. The Oracle at Delphi. The voices that shaped kings and kingdoms were ancient intelligences left behind by a forgotten civilization—entities that no longer answered prayers, but manipulated humanity through prophecy, fear, and carefully engineered belief.
As Agamemnon rises from refugee to warrior to king, unseen hands guide every triumph, every loss, and every impossible choice. Love becomes a weapon. Prophecy becomes a trap. And the path to greatness leads inexorably toward an altar where a father will one day raise a knife over his own daughter.
The first sails from Troy are already on the horizon.
The game has begun!
Agamemnon Rising is Book #1 of a sci-fi series retelling Greek mythology, following Agamemnon, Clytemnestra, Orestes, Electra, and Iphigenia before and after the Trojan War. A royal dynasty's bloody cycle of vengeance unfolds under the influence of "gods" who are actually AIs created to guide humanity but corrupted. Agamemnon's rise from prince to king tests mercy, vengeance, and free will.
