The gods are back. Did you myth them?  

You probably saw the press conference. Nine months ago, Zeus' murder catapulted the Greek gods back into public life. Now, the whole pantheon revels in new temples, casinos, and media empires - except Apollo. An overachiever with a bursting portfolio of godly duties, the amount of email alone he receives from rapacious mortals turns each day into a living hell.  

Yet there may be hope, if only he can return Zeus to life! With the aid of Thalia, the muse of comedy and science fiction, Apollo will risk his very godhood to help sarcastic TV producer Tracy Wallace and a gamer geek named Leif - two mortals who hold the key to Zeus' resurrection. (Well, probably. Prophecies are tricky buggers.) 

Yet, whoever murdered Zeus will certainly kill again to prevent his return. Can Apollo escape the murderer when he doesn't even know who they are? Can he do it before the muse gets cranky? Do the venomous bat-winged kittens terrorizing Nevada have anything to do with anything?

Came across this by accident, fun little story well narrated. Will definitely consider listening to the author (and narrators!) other works.

Good fun, a bit Pratchett/Douglas Adam like

This book likes to make fun of the listener, sometimes entire sections is dedicated only to make fun of people making assumptions about the various situations.
Its fun, hard to predict, the narrator is good, and its overall just a fun listen.

There could be more about the flying kittens as seen on the cover (They hunt in packs), but they are in there, and is considered far more dangerous than Hydra's, gorgons, and other of the various monsters within.
Because the flying kittens of death is just so cute, they are hard to kill. even though they are super dangerous.

Subversion of many expectations
