Sequel to tough and gritty time travel thriller _Blood of Heroes_.

Jason Thanou: a time traveler with a past and a burning mission. When the gods

of ancient Greece proved to be not only monstrously real, but totally

alien—and poised to dominate humanity forever—Jason took care of the

situation, at least in Minoan Crete.  Now he’s got what looks like a normal

assignment: to lead a time traveling expedition of scholars to the battle of

Marathon and record for the benefit of future historians the magnificent stand

of Greece’s hoplite warriors against Persian invaders.

But the Olympians are not done with their attempt to dominate humanity. Now

the god Pan is afoot in Greece–a creature who may have the power to turn

ancient Athens away from her budding democracy and toward a corrupt future on

an Earth dominated by twisted humans and evil alien forces.  But not if Jason

can discover Pan’s secret, thwart a conspiracy that stretches for

millennia—and save the birthplace of democracy from the corruption of the

gods.
