Reseña del editor:

Apotheosis is a story of Newfoundland - a retelling of Newfoundland's history, with a focus on the 20th Century, in the form of a Greek Epic. Set in a primeval alternate version of the Avalon Peninsula called Kyandara (the Free North), the story transplants Newfoundland and Newfoundlanders into an ancient Mediterranean-like world of diverse islands, warring city-states, fantastic creatures and dangerous voyages. A series of events befalls this island nation, both fantastical and eerily familiar as history unfolds again, with Newfoundland folklore, culture and character all prominently on display. The narrative itself features a large cast of characters but focuses on Darek the apprentice apothecary, a quiet and unassuming young man. His life takes an unexpected turn when his home receives a visit from a long lost hero of a foreign land, followed by a strange vision visited on Darek himself. He must eventually leave his island and plunge into the unknown, leaving behind a country to which he may never return, or which he may not recognize even if he does.
