The Awakening of Agnostos - Myths of the Olympians by Jennifer Paquette and Nicholas Perrotti

Author Jennifer Paquette,  a former Smithtown resident, has turned to the Greek gods and mythology to explain the Bermuda Triangle. The creative idea to use mythology in a new way was not Ms. Paquette’s, the idea came from her son Nicholas Perrotti, who at age 14 developed an interest in mythology and encouraged his mother to write about it and to be “creative”.

Paquette liked Nicholas’  idea of writing about the gods of Olympus and began to jot down her thoughts. Her ideas  were met with “it has already been done before”.  Thus began the collaboration of mother and son that led to The Awakening of Agnostos - Myths of the Olympians. 

The Awakening of Agnostos tells the story of the Bermuda Triangle named Agnostos - The Triangle of the Unknown, a mysterious place on earth and the only place where the gods of Olympus have no power. Hecate, the Goddess of Magic, is banished to Agnostos and stumbles upon the a gateway to the center of the earth where a god more powerful than the Olympians lives. Five Olympians must enter the abyss and fight the unknown god to maintain their positions as supreme rulers of Olympus and save Earth.
