The Naxos Quartet
Four novels by Patrick Garner about Greek gods in the modern world.

The Winnowing, Seduction, Deception, Goddesses & Love
Greek gods appear in our time to prevent humans from discovering immorality. The Fates — three ancient goddess who determined life span — are reborn so that they can manipulate events to restore the balance of life and death. The outcome is not what anyone could imagine. Their machinations make this a classic Greek tale. A stand-alone novel or Book I of The Naxos Quartet.
Cycladic Girls, Celebrities, Deities, Love & Power
The Olympic gods appear in our time to change human events and are themselves changed when a minor divinity becomes the primal Great Goddess. The reader is swept into a mix of high fashion, Cycladic islands, satyrs, alliances between the gods, and a powerful love story. You’ll feel like you’re on a first name basis with these deities. A stand-alone novel or Book II of The Naxos Quartet.
Homo Divinitas, Greek Goddesses, Modern Love
The appearance of Homo divinitas — the old Greek gods — in the contemporary world occurred in order to right the balance of nature. It also happened simultaneously with the return of the primal Great Goddess, whose attempts to ease human suffering sets us up for two of the greatest love stories of all time. A stand-alone novel or Book III of The Naxos Quartet.
All That Lasts, Greek Gods in the Modern World
The final volume of The Naxos Quartet follows the Great Goddess, the primal deity, as she tries to correct her earlier failings. Here she shifts in time between the modern Greek island of Naxos and old Eurṓpē in a quest to overcome her extraordinary trials and to rewrite history. A stand-alone novel or Book IV of The Naxos Quartet. ![]()
