Once Olympia's greatest hunter, Orion sits as the centuries turn to millennia. Torn between his resentment of the Pantheon, his crumbling faith and his need to serve them, Orion seeks the ultimate purpose of his immortal life and is thrust in the middle of a conspiracy that can destroy Olympus. Orion delves into the dark underbelly of Greek mythos -- the rumblings of a massive war between the Olympians and the lesser gods sits on the shoulders of a long ignored demi-god whom both sides see as the key.
We hunt for many reasons. Maybe the most cherished thing we get from hunting are the memories. Under Orion is a collection of one hunter's memories made while hunting from the hills of Appalachia where he was born, to the green hills of Africa. All are told in Richard Mann's simple campfire fashion. Maybe Adam Heggenstaller, the Executive Editor of the National Rifle Association's American Hunter magazine explained this book best when he commented, "Under Orion confirms the most treasured things we bring home from the field are measured not in pounds or inches, but instead by moments forever lodged in our memories. Here are one man's trophies from a lifetime of hunting, richly recounted in stories that stir you to reflect on your own experiences outdoors and encourage you to gather more." Under Orion makes for great bed time reading. You'll put it down, close your eyes, and your own hunting memories will take over.
