Ethikos

When powerful aliens play God, humanity has to fight back in creative ways to survive. The people of ancient Greece have been fooled – the beings they believe are Gods are merely powerful aliens on a quest to find ways to continue their bloodlines after becoming infertile among themselves. The "Gods" are capricious, cruel, and cunning, and have subjected humanity to ten years of turmoil with the Trojan War, all for their own amusements. Hypnos and Pasithea are half-bloods caught in the struggle between their powerful alien mothers and the others who have claimed Greece as their own. Their love is forbidden, and drastic measures are used to keep them apart. Now, in order to save and claim the woman he loves, Hypnos will have to become not only a man, but someone who can fool the Gods themselves, by changing the story so that the good can triumph. But has he learned enough tricks from the Gods to best them, or will Pasithea pay the ultimate price for his failure?
