Hi everyone
I’m looking for recommendations for novels that are either set in ancient Greece (historical accuracy not required), or one whose main character is pledged/bound to a pact made with a superior entity (divine/elemental/magical/…).
Bonus points if you happen to know of a novel which combines boths of these tropes.
It can be fantasy or realistic, I don’t mind either.
Thanks for your recommendations!
Mage Errant by John Bierce has a main warlock character who pacts with a greater power. There are other ways of pacts as well that feature throughout the series. This is one of my favorite all time series, particularly for the main group of teenagers who support each other no matter what. The magic system is great and worldbuilding starts to shine as the series progresses.
Some recommendations for novels based on Greek mythology (though I haven’t read them yet):
