Jacqueline Towell and Sharon Legge Pen Mythology-Inspired Young Adult Novel

Greek mythology can be an inexhaustible source of inspiration for new stories. Modern writers can incorporate Greek myths in their unique narratives by incorporating the deities of the pantheon and imagining them under a new premise or refer overtly or subtly to the myths.
 
Jacqueline Towell and Sharon Legge showed how they did it with “The Convergence Series: Deliverance” (BookBaby, 2017). Deliverance is the first book in a promising series of Greek mythology-inspired young adult novels that combine elements of romance, fantasy, science fiction, magic, and adventure.
 
“The Convergence Series: Deliverance” presents itself as a tale of self-discovery and survival, revolving around the themes of identity, choice, courage, family, and war. The title of the series refers to an event, “Convergence,” which is a time of apocalyptic proportions where two opposing planetary systems would converge into one.
 
The main character of Deliverance is Athena, who wakes to find herself released from Chaos, a prison realm where she has been trapped for the last thirty years. She is saved from that prison by Hephaestus, who also helps her acclimate into Olympian society. Gradually, a love develops between them.
 
Meanwhile, the events surrounding the looming “convergence” is bringing Olympus and Atlantis on the brink of war. Athena finds out she has a gift of prophecy, which enables her to see visions of a chaotic future. She must decide between doing what is right for her kingdom or following the orders of her king – and she must choose right.
 
What would become of Athena and Hephaestus – and their feelings for each other? Where would she stand in the war between Olympus and Atlantis? Get a copy of Jacqueline Towell and Sharon Legge’s “The Convergence Series: Deliverance” to find that out.
 
“The Convergence Series: Deliverance” will soon be displayed in the upcoming 2018 Beijing International Book Fair on August 23-26, 2018 at the New China International Exhibition Center (NCIEC) in Beijing, China.
