The Age of Pandora
Coming 13 May 2025
Pandora has been trapped on Olympus her entire life, the first mortal woman and a possession of the Gods. Her dreams of freedom are shattered when Zeus engages her to the Titan Epimetheus, a death sentence to a helpless and weak mortal.
But a wedding is the least of Pandora’s concerns. Deadly rivalries lurk behind the guise of perfection.
The mortal realm is teetering on rebellion and the Titans have their own schemes that could threaten their fragile peace with the Gods. As Pandora plans her escape, she is thrown into a tangle of power and deception and every choice could seal her fate for better or worse.
Pandora wants her freedom, no matter the cost, but with a war brewing and the fate of the realm on her shoulders, is she willing to pay?
Greek mythology has always been a passion of mine and, strangely, my obsession stemmed from my love of vampires.
​
When I was 10 years old, I gave myself a summer school project because I was bored and, yes, a massive nerd. Twilight and the Vampire Diaries were sweeping me up in the vampire craze of the 2010's so I decided to write a project on the origin of vampires in mythology. I stumbled on the Greek myth of Apollo and Artemis creating the first vampire and got hooked from there.
When delving into Greek mythology, Pandora's Box stood out to me. I loved the idea that, no matter what life throws at you and how bad things feel, there will always be hope.
But, as much as I loved the story, the portrayal of Pandora bothered me. She is an object in her own story. She is merely a plot device to do the Gods' bidding. She has no agency, no control, no identity.
So, when it came to brainstorming a new novel idea, I immediately wanted to give Pandora an opportunity to tell her story- not just the story of the box. I wanted to showcase her own journey. What are her dreams? What is her relationship with the Gods? What are her flaws?
Hopefully, I've done her story justice.
The Storyteller's Collection
Editing
Storytellers hold magic in their hands: the power to create and the power to destroy.
In the Kingdom of Evren, Storytellers have been hunted to near extinction. They are feared for their unnatural powers, creating monsters of shadows and puppets of people. They manipulate minds with their words and feed on memories until nothing but an empty shell is left.
​
When Eira returns home to find her mother and the rest of the town stripped of their memories, she sets off to get revenge on the Storyteller responsible and restore her family.
​
But secrets are lurking behind every corner. Eira joins the King's Guard, an elite division of the King's Army who are skilled hunters of Storytellers. Eira is thrust into a world of danger and flimsy alliances whilst facing a rocky reunion with her first love and first betrayal.
Eira must find a way to survive the darkness and an evil whose only limit is their imagination.
