Anxious Millennial Champion

Parker Dorn is an anxiety attack waiting to happen, and thats before hes recruited to recreate the Twelve Labors of Hercules.

Growing up in Central Florida, Parker is like many millennials. He works, he loves coffee, and he has severe anxiety that will not leave him alone. However, he gets blindsided when the retail store he works at closes without warning. In need of income to make rent, he signs up to be a delivery driver, but while out on his first shift, he gets a large order with a giant tip in the ritzy suburbs of Orlando, where he is enlisted for something more than a simple job.

Every couple of years, the Greek gods hold the Hercules Games, where Twelve Champions, mortals chosen by the Twelve Olympians to represent them, recreate the Twelve Labors of Hercules, for Power and Favor. Dionysus, the god of wine, is often too drunk to remember to choose a Champion. So, when Parker shows up to deliver food to cure his hangover, Dionysus proclaims the neurotic delivery driver to represent him for the Games.

As Parker is thrown into the Hercules Games, he quickly learns the old myths and legends are real, and also deadly. Not only is his timid nature a stark contrast to the mad god of confidence hes chosen to represent, but he also seems to be the only one to notice something is sabotaging the Games.

Fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman, Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan, and Hades Trials by Eliza Raine will enjoy Anxious Millennial Champion.
