I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others.

Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated.

Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

One characteristic is the use of mythology. Since Greek mythology is so integral to their history, these novels often incorporate gods and goddesses like Zeus and Athena into the plot. The language used may also be evocative of the time, with archaic words and phrases here and there. Another aspect is the exploration of Greek values, like honor and heroism. For example, in novels about the heroes of the Trojan War, the characters' actions are often driven by these values. Also, the political and social structures of ancient Greece, such as the democratic system in Athens or the military society of Sparta, are often depicted in detail, which gives readers a good understanding of how the society functioned.

In a way, it is. Greek mythology has roots in ancient cultures and traditions, but many of the tales involve supernatural and fantastical elements that make them fictional. However, they do offer insights into the values and beliefs of those times.

Greek historical fiction helps by bringing the past to life. For example, through stories about the gods and heroes, we can understand their religious beliefs. We see how they worshipped Zeus, Athena etc. Also, the tales of battles like the Trojan War in historical fiction show their military strategies and values of honor and courage.

I would also recommend 'Gates of Fire' by Steven Pressfield. It gives a fictional account of the Battle of Thermopylae. It has great detail about the Spartan way of life, their military tactics, and the heroic stand they made against the Persians. It's full of action and historical accuracy.
