WHO ARE THE CHARACTERS?As survivors of the intergalactic warship Olympus, we follow a motley group of characters and personalities like: Ares, a junior officer in Olympus' Infantry Corps, never had a choice but to join the family business. Now, difficult circumstances will truly test if he is up to the task. Will he live up to the high expectations his father set out for him or will he determine his own way in a time his family needs him most? Athena, trusted and renown in the Intelligence Sector, isn't afraid to let everyone know she's the smartest in the room. But being smart doesn't mean she gets along with others, especially the Infantry. Can she set pride aside to complete the mission or will her ego get her into trouble yet again? Artemis, the baby sister, is a cocky and rebellious sure shot who isn't afraid of nearly anything. Master in reconnaissance, she prefers range over heavy firepower and when it comes to precision, she's second to none. Don't mess with Artemis. Hades, one of just a few general officers, has a no-nonsense approach that earned him the high rank of Chief Marshal. In charge of all law and order of Olympus, how will he react when his once secured prison now unleashes those dangerous few he is responsible for and their unforgiving secrets? Nike, Olympus' supreme flight officer, quickly answered the call to serve when this seemingly never-ending brutal war sparked. Loyal and skilled, she ascended the ranks to become one of Zeus' most trusted commanders and arguably the best pilot in the known universe. Zeus, patriarch of Olympus, will do anything to lead his tribe to victory over the dominant Titans, their formidable adversaries, no matter the cost. Can the last of his clan survive the finish of this long odyssey or is the human race finally doomed to overdue extinction? And more!
