Cataclysm
| Stephen H. King
| The world is rebooted from its technology foundation into a mythical existence controlled by powerful flows of elemental magic as small pockets of humans scramble to live through the resulting cataclysmic disaster. Crystal, one of those scrambling humans, survives only through the surprising powers of her husband, who teleports the family to safety.
When it turns out that he's actually Mars, the God of War, she struggles to figure out what it means to be the wife of a god. More to the point, what does it mean to be Mrs. Of War? As she comes to grips with her new reality, she suffers a series of jealous encounters with Sorscha, a shape-shifting dragon and her husband's servant who spends most of her time in stunningly beautiful human form.
Crystal soon learns, though, that her true enemy is Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and her husband's ex-wife. Worse, the goddess wants her husband back, and the game that unfolds takes Matt and Crystal to Atlantis and on an evening jaunt to Olympus, the dive bar for the gods, before ending in an epic battle for Crystal's life.
