Synopsis

"Burn Notice" and "Pushing Daisies" writer, Lisa Joy, wrote this gripping coming-of-age tale of an 18-year-old girl who  happens to be Athena. In Athena's life, there's no such thing as hyperbole. Her "evil" stepmother? Hera, who's actually evil and out to kill her. The bad boy she falls in love with? Hades, king of the underworld. The philandering father whose approval she always seeks and fails to attain? Zeus the ultimate deadbeat dad. And now she must take on all of the gods in order to stop them from destroying mankind.

About this title

From the Inside Flap:

Jonathan Nolan (The Dark Knight, The Prestige, Memento): "'Headache has that magic ingredient, the one I'm always hooked by - the idea that there's something weird hidden underneath the normal world; something smirking down there, tracing patterns on teh surface, waiting to come out and play."

From the Back Cover:

Matt Nix (Burn Notice, The Good Guys): "Lisa Joy takes the toughest chick from the last 3000 years of storytelling, puts her into present-day Manhattan and lets the dparks fly. Fun, sexy, and incredibly cool."
