All our lives, we’ve been fed watered-down, PC versions of the classic myths. In reality, mythology is more screwed up than a schizophrenic shaman doing hits of unidentified. Wait, it all makes sense now. In *Zeus Grants Stupid Wishes*, Cory O’Brien, creator of Myths RETOLD!, sets the stories straight. These are rude, crude, totally sacred texts told the way they were meant to be told: loudly, and with lots of four-letter words. Skeptical? Here are just a few gems to consider:
� Zeus once stuffed an unborn fetus inside his thigh to save its life after he exploded its mother by being too good in bed.
� The entire Egyptian universe was saved because Sekhmet just got too hammered to keep murdering everyone.
� The Hindu universe is run by a married couple who only stop murdering in order to throw sweet dance parties…*on the corpses of their enemies. *
� The Norse goddess Freyja once consented to a four-dwarf gangbang in exchange for one shiny necklace.
And there’s more dysfunctional goodness where that came from.
