In the Shadow of Olympus is where empires fall, gods bleed, and prophecies don't ask politely. A thief raised on the streets of Rome. A Spartan warrior with a legacy not his own. A Roman prince marked for death before he ever drew a sword. And a sorcerer weaving their fates from the shadows. Niko never asked to be chosen. He only wanted to survive long enough to feed his dog, dodge guards, and maybe get through a day without being stabbed. But when a mysterious box drops into his life, so does destiny-loud, violent, and filled with gods who don't like being forgotten. Adonis was raised to be a Spartan, forged in the fires of discipline, blood, and glory. But even he wasn't ready for what lurks beyond the training grounds-something ancient, something watching. Cassius was born a prince of Rome, but prophecy doesn't care about titles. Hunted by assassins and haunted by secrets his own father kept buried, he's learning fast that leadership isn't about birthright-it's about blood. And Lokvar? Lokvar just wants to burn the world down and rebuild it in his image-assuming the gods don't beat him to it. Spanning the myth-drenched streets of ancient Rome to the ember-lit skies of hidden realms, In the Shadow of Olympus is a dark, immersive fantasy packed with brutal combat, ancient magic, found family, and gods who'd rather kill you than guide you. Fans of John Gwynne, James Islington, and S.A. Chakraborty-welcome home.
Lorenzo Washburn is a debut author with a relentless passion for crafting emotionally charged, mythologically rich fantasy. With a background in sales and marketing and a lifelong love of epic storytelling, Lorenzo blends ancient lore with modern grit to deliver immersive narratives that blur the line between gods and mortals. His work is inspired by the stories that helped him through life's hardest battles-and by the three loyal fur companions who refused to leave his side. In the Shadow of Olympus, his debut novel, is the explosive first entry in The Throneless Realms Saga, a high-stakes epic where destiny bleeds, war burns, and the gods finally answer for what they've done.
