MADISON, Wis. - Dec. 18, 2014 - PRLog -- Madison author and resident, Zachary Howe, is publishing his debut novel, The Heir of Olympus and the Forest Realm¸ a book that follows a sixteen-year-old named Gordie Leonhart, a modern day descendant of Hercules consumed by the desire to avenge his father’s murder.

In the aftermath of a devastating attack on his hometown, Gordie Leonhart is confronted by an Olympic god. Hermes tells him that he is the descendant of Hercules, and that this destruction is the result of Zeus's attempt on Gordie's life. In the face of grief, anger, and even girl troubles, Gordie begins his journey to complete twelve labors and attain his Herculean potential in this first installment of The Heir of Olympus series.
