Still They Rise / Gods Among Us

You can find Wolf Grove Media's additional anthology titles HERE 

Prompt:  

Myths don’t disappear, they adapt.

The gods and figures of old still walk among us, reshaped by time and technology, memory and imagination. This anthology series brings ancient mythology into the present day and near future, exploring how these timeless stories might unfold in a modern or speculative world. Each volume focuses on a single pantheon, and each deity or mythic figure is featured only once per volume—offering a fresh, unique take every time.

Volume I explores the Greek pantheon, while Volume II will turn to Norse mythology. We are currently accepting submissions for both. Future volumes may include the Yoruba and Celtic pantheons, with more to come.
