She placed a robe around Jesus' shoulders and pressed a small tube to his neck. The painkillers cleared his headache, but did nothing to relieve the pain in his heart. Seeking comfort, he accepted the embrace from Artemis. Jesus buried his face on her breast, and continued to weep with deep, heartrending sobs.

In an attempt to avenge his father and defend his family, Jesus is clubbed unconscious. Left for dead, Jesus is rescued by Apollo Centauri, Jesus's true sire, through artificial insemination.

Sinai and learns of the sixty-thousand-year-long experiment being conducted by a team of humans from the planet Alpha, more than four light years from Earth. Jesus is startled to discover that he is the focal point of an experiment in social engineering by the Alphans in an attempt to persuade the Earth humans to cease their genocide.

A Good Morning America Book Club Pick! • A bighearted novel with technicolor characters, plenty of Texas swagger, and a powder keg of a plot in which marriages struggle, rivalries flare, and secrets explode, all with a clever wink toward classical mythology. For fans of Madeline Miller's Circe: "The Iliad meets Friday Night Lights in this muscular, captivating debut" (Oprah Daily). The Briscoe family is once again the talk of their small town when March returns to East Texas two years after he was caught having an affair with his brother's wife. His mother, June, hardly welcomes him back with open arms. Her husband's own past affairs have made her tired of being the long-suffering spouse. Is it, perhaps, time for a change? Within days of March's arrival, someone is dead, marriages are upended, and even the strongest of alliances are shattered. In the end, the ties that hold them together might be exactly what drag them all down. An expansive tour de force, Olympus, Texas cleverly weaves elements of classical mythology into a thoroughly modern family saga, rich in drama and psychological complexity. After all, at some point, don't we all wonder: What good is this destructive force we call love?
