Jessica Cage’s Scorned by the Gods books in order
The Sphinx (Scorned by the Gods Book 1)
Nothing inspires the thirst for revenge like a broken heart.
Asa didn’t ask to love a god. She didn’t pray that he would come to her home, ravage her body, and change the very meaning of her life. She didn’t ask for it, but that is what happened. For years she belonged to Ares, the god of war.
She surrendered her heart to him. Whenever he wanted her, she was there. Until the day that he decided he no longer had use for her. Refusing to allow her to be with another he fashioned a curse and turned Asa into the Sphinx.
While he was preoccupied with causing devastation elsewhere, Asa found a way to escape her curse and went into hiding. When the gods fell from grace she knew that they would one day return and she prepared herself.
While the gods were away she worked.
She collected relics that she used to craft a weapon fit to take down a god and swore to avenge the life that was taken from her.
Daughter of Medusa (Scorned by the Gods Book 2)
A woman scorned by a god, a daughter no one knew existed, and a plan for vengeance.
Delilah was raised in another realm. It was the only way her mother could ensure that she would survive. Being the daughter of Medusa was a risk to her life. Not only could she not look into her own mother’s eyes, but if her father were to find out she existed, he would have called for her death.
For centuries she was protected by the witches who promised her mother they would keep her safe, but something changed. The power inside of Delilah awakened and called her to return to Earth, just in time for the rebirth of the gods who took everything away from her.
Will Delilah get the justice she is after? Will the gods punish her as they did her mother?
Horror and comedy both make us jump—which is why these elements work together so well together. Looking at books from authors like Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, Tanya Huff, Kelley Armstrong, John Scalzi, Diana Rowland, and Kevin J. Anderson, plus many authors you should meet.
