BLURB
One slave is all it takes to turn the tide.
Rhodopis has lived most of her life as a slave to the god of chaos, knowing there wasn't a way her life could have been better. But a visiting god and his priests changes all that, and she learns that there's more to life than servitude.
Can she follow her heart, or is she destined to be a slave forever?
-
Servant of Chaos is part of the Forgotten Gods series and is Rhodopis’ complete story. It is loosely based on the legend of Rhodopis and other Egyptian mythology.
GODS, GODDESSES, & CHARACTERS LIST
Please note that this god list is a simplified version. Because of the span of Ancient Egyptian history, many of the gods and goddesses took on multiple roles over the span of time (as demonstrated in the story by Hathor's multitude of aspects). Some of the information below is specific to the Forgotten Gods universe, and is specified as such. I've tried to include all of the gods/goddesses who appear in the universe below, but the list is by no means exhaustive. Please see the author notes at the end of each book for more information.
The family links the Ancient Egyptians formed between their gods weren't meant to represent family ties, but aspect ties. This is why many of the gods and goddesses are consorts with their siblings. However, in the context of the Forgotten Gods universe, I have removed several of the sibling relationships to avoid incest (e.g. between Isis and Osiris, and Nephthys and Seth), as the brother/sister bond means something different in the modern context.
Abu - a minor god of light. In the context of the Forgotten Gods Universe, Abu is a minor god serving under Ra, and is the romantic interest for Rhodopis. Their story is fictionalised inServant Of Chaos.
Ammit - a demon and goddess who devours the hearts of those not worthy to enter the afterlife. Her story will be fictionalised in the Forgotten Gods Universe in Devourer Of Hearts.
