Description

My name is Ares. Since I was young, I caused trouble and got into fights. "I will make you the god of war," my father Zeus told me one day when he realized what my inclination was. However, I preferred to become the god of peace. I believed that people deserve to have peace, provided, of course, that they want it themselves. But do they want it? With the Mythological Tales series, a new "reading" of ancient Greek myths is attempted. They are not old, oft-repeated stories, but exciting narratives through which all the timeless human adventures, fears, and joys that have marked and still mark the human soul unfold.

Read an excerpt

My name is Ares and I am a god, but not the best one. To be precise, I am the god of war. If you ask me, deep down I didn’t want to do this job. My father Zeus insisted. So, I had to obey. Who dared to disagree with him in those days? A thousand times I would have preferred to become something else in my life. Let’s say, the god of peace. Why shouldn’t there be a god of peace? "Nonsense!" my father said angrily and threw a thunderbolt, even though the sky had no clouds at all. "People will always find reasons to make wars. If you become the god of peace, in the end you’ll be unemployed. So, you will take care of wars. After all, it’s the only job that suits your character." Exactly like that. And I lowered my head and went on to do the profession I actually hated.
