Do "gods" rule you? What would YOU do if you learned just how much power hangs over you? Minus Orth is caught between his own "power of art" and a woman's "power of being."

Minus Orth has an idea which can explain how the Olympian Gods would change in our minds when we are allowed to use our imaginations to see their true ages. Time changes all people — even gods — and when their day-to-day mischievous lives no longer play a role in human affairs, what then do they become? The image of shriveled skin is too apt to ignore. And, above all, what do we associate with the aging of these gods within the condition of our modern times?

He is sculpting the mighty figures of myth — and the not-so-mighty — in an art cycle he has titled "Mythical Gods in Their Twilight" without the least irony. And his creations have not come without a price.

Author Mark Beyer, along with Siren & Muse Publishing, bring you a story of obsession, identity, and art. Power lurks on every page.


"I want to read this book. I must read this book." — Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award

Minus Orth's "eccentricities ... make him the iconoclast he is intended to be."

— Publishers Weekly
