Gorgon
She won’t escape the prophecy. She’ll become it.
From International Thriller Award winning, Amazon Charts bestselling author Jess Lourey comes an epic saga of love and betrayal, revenge and redemption featuring history’s most misunderstood woman.
The gods have always told Gorgon who she is—a mortal mistake among monsters, too fragile for power, too dangerous for freedom. But when an ancient prophecy names her the end of the old world, Gorgon does the unthinkable: she decides to write her own myth.
Armed with nothing but a wild heart, she sets off on a perilous quest to recover the shattered Aegis—Athena’s shield and the only relic that might change her fate.
Alongside an unlikely fellowship—a healer with steady hands, a philosopher in sandals, warrior women and wise fools—she travels through sacred ruins, haunted islands, and treacherous seas, chased by a god who would rather destroy her than see her rise and claim her true name.
But her real enemy isn’t Poseidon. It’s the story the world tells about women like her.
A blazing reimagining of the myth you only think you know, Gorgon is a feminist epic about the cost of truth, the fury of becoming, and the sisterhood that just might save the world.
