The Pantheon Prophecy
A. Maureen Burns
Publication date: January 20th 2020
Genres: Adult, Fantasy

We live in a world where demigods , gods, and Ancients from the Pantheon are sworn to protect humanity. So when an exiled member of the Pantheon decides to kill everyone on earth, a demigod knight is given the mission to stop it with the help of a human.

28 year old book store owner, Elspeth, is about to find out she’s a natural born witch when she’s approached by the immortal knight in charge of protecting her.

Luka has been offered ascension into the Pantheon as a god if he completes his mission and stops the moon from colliding with the earth but his charge doesn’t truly know the first thing about her gift of mind-reading or anything about her rightful place within the Pantheon.

Everyone on the planet will die if Elspeth and Luka can’t find a way to trust in their own abilities and work together despite their growing attraction for each other.

CHRISTINA’S 3.5 STAR REVIEW

As a PNR lover, I’m always down to pick up a book about Gods, Goddesses and anything supernatural. This genre can be difficult to write because it could take a while to “build” the world the story takes place in. And although the concept of this story was there, there were parts that I had a hard time with. Probably my own personal issues, but nonetheless, the truth.

Elspeth is a 28 year old woman who runs a bookstore left behind by her deceased parents 10 years ago. Even though it’s been 10 years, there are things that her parents did and did not do that linger. Like the basement full of archives and/or collectable items that she still hasn’t taken the time to look through. In fact, she never really had an interest in looking until a man walks in to the bookstore, starting a chain reaction of live altering events that could literally kill all mankind.

Luka is a Paladin. Best way to describe him (the book had a good description) is to think of him as a Knight of the Round Table…and a demi-god. He’s been “assigned” to protect Elspeth while she searches for the Pantheon Prophecy, which will help save mankind. Although he’s been a demi-god for many centuries, protecting all of humanity, he hasn’t dealt with his past, nor has he taken the time to understand the humans he’s supposed to protect. This makes it a bit difficult when trying to relate to Elspeth while protecting her.

There is a lot going on in this book. Not so much that you can’t follow, but a lot to “keep track of” so to speak. But it also took me a while before I felt like I was understanding what was going on. That is, until something else would happen and I felt like I was being pulled in to another direction, only for there to be unresolved issues for me in the end.

Author Bio:

Maureen is an Air Force vet and world traveler. When she’s not hanging out with family, friends, and a menagerie of family pets, she’s dabbling in photography. Reading and writing have been a part of her life for just over three decades and there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight. This is great because this world-creator has dozens of souls living in her head that are waiting to be written down and shared with the world.
