"Haunting, relatable queer YA reimagining of the myth of Ganymede." Publishers Weekly Rated as RECOMMENDED (the highest rating) by the US Review of Books This contemporary story is inspired by ancient Greek mythology, whereby Ganymede, the most beautiful mortal, is pursued and kidnapped by Zeus to serve as the cup-bearer to the gods of Mount Olympus. Jason, a beautiful gay teen, is being pursued by different people, for different purposes. But Jason is also in pursuit of it all - fame, fortune, and romance. As he begins to explore his Queer identity, what sacrifices must he make in order to be chosen as the face of IMMORTAL, a new line of self-care products for men? Is it possible to have it all? The story is timeless, but re-imagined in a contemporary setting, reflecting on themes such as peer pressure, cultural conflicts, the allure of social media, and the complexities of coming out in today's atmosphere. Though written for young adults, readers of all ages will enjoy this thought-provoking and engaging story. CW: Violence Suicide
