Gods and mortals clash in the second gripping book in the Olympus Series—a sweeping retelling of Greek myth for fans of epic historical fantasy. When Prince Odysseus is sent to restore his family's honour, he's drawn to Delos, where a new and mysterious prophecy commands the attention of the gods. Caught in a deadly game of prophecy and power, Odysseus and his companions—daemon Bria, the hero Diomedes, and a loyal Ithacan band—must unravel secrets that tie his fate to Athena herself.

Odysseus's thrilling adventures continue in the gripping third instalment of the historical Greek fantasy, the Olympus Series. Prince Odysseus and the daemon Bria must penetrate the haunted caverns beneath Dodona, seeking a way to save their doomed nation, Achaea, from the might of Troy. The startling revelation that follows will set Odysseus on his most daunting mission yet, as he seeks to reunite the divided Achaean kingdoms before the rapacious Trojans strike.

A prophecy condemns him, a goddess binds him, but what will set Odysseus free? Young Prince Odysseus is about to have his world torn apart. He has travelled to the oracle at Pytho to be anointed as heir to his island kingdom, but instead a terrible secret is revealed, one that tears down every pillar of his life and marks him out for death.

Now I'm Photogenic and Other Stories I Tell Myself is a collection of ten playfully strange and unsettling stories, some realistic and some surreal.

Zwischen furiosem Epos und buntestem Pop, zwischen existenzieller Oper und wärmster Soap-Opera fragt Şeyda Kurt, welche Chancen im Zerfall aller Ordnungen liegen.
