Who let the Gods out? (Book 1)

The book series started all here. Normal Kid, Elliot Hooper, has a constellation, Virgo, member of The Zodiac Council, crash into his cowshed and introduce herself as a main character. But Elliot really doesn't need this at the moment as he is trying to help and cure his sick mother, suffering from memory loss. Virgo tells Elliot that she is an immortal, constellation of The Zodiac Council, and Elliot doesn't believe her. So, she takes a dip in a lake and proves to the main character that she can survive being underwater for a long while and proving that she cannot die. Elliot she thinks is insane and tries taking her to police to find her parents but Virgo says that she doesn't have any. After seeing with his own eyes that she can survive underwater for a longer amount of time, he takes her word for it.

Earlier in the book, we know why Virgo crashed into Elliot's cowshed. Apparently, when her colleagues at The Zodiac Council cannot decide who will go down to Earth from Elysium to bring evil Thanatos, Daemon of Death, ambrosia, the liquid that keeps all immortals immortal. Personally, the creator doesn't know why they don't just let Thanatos rot underneath Stonehenge, where he was imprisoned by Zeus, King of the Gods. Whilst they are deciding, Virgo takes it on herself to bring the ambrosia to the Daemon. That is when she crashes into Elliot's cowshed.

They get spotted by security guards and jump underneath the Heel Stone when Virgo works out the code to get in. They fall down a staircase in utter darkness and run into Thanatos, disguised as a starved old man in heavy shackles. Thanatos promises Elliot his mother back to normal and Elliot goes to free the Daemon but Virgo has other ideas and tries stopping Elliot but the boy wants his mother back dearly and frees Thanatos who immediately transforms into his stronger and more powerful self. He tries to kill Elliot and Virgo but realises he can't touch the boy. Virgo then rescues Elliot in a starball thingy, sorry, constellation and flies back to Elysium. Virgo gets in trouble with the council for revealing her powers to a mortal and they say that if she does it again, her Kardia, the thing that also keeps immortals still immortal.Meanwhile, Thanatos heads down to Tartarus, Daemon prison, and we get introduced to one of the creator's favourite characters, Sisyphus. He tricks Sisyphus into letting his boulder roll all the way back down the hill. All the Daemons need to complete a task to get out Tartarus and be free. Whilst that is happening, we get introduced to the main Gods, Hermes, Zeus, Aphrodite and Athene. Zeus tells Elliot about the Chaos stones and how they need to gain them to defeat Thanatos. Also while we get introduced to secondary villain, Hypnos, Thanatos's brother, He is currently being a mortal gamble king. He reunites with his brother and Hypnos promises to kill Elliot because Thanatos can't.

Meanwhile, Athene, Goddess of wisdom, finds out that the Earth stone, the chaos stone that they are focusing on, is a jewel, part of the Imperial State Crown, worn by her majesty, The Queen. So, Elliot, Virgo and Pegasus, Zeus's noble flying steed, fly to Buckingham Palace to ask The Queen if they could be loaned the crown for a while. Elliot tells the Queen about what's is going on and one look at Pegasus and The Queen is willing to hand it over. But what they don't know is that Hypnos is disguised as a butler and comes attacking outta nowhere. Next thing you know, The Queen is in her Karate gear and is battling Hypnos with a number of antiques. Hypnos flees in order to not get anymore hurt. Elliot gets the Earth stone but decides to go to Thanatos to give him the Chaos Stones so he can get his mother, Josie, back to normal because Daemons are the only immortals who can heal mortals.

Thanatos tricks Elliot into drinking from the river which makes you sleep forever. Thanatos does this so Elliot won't be a threat. But Elliot remembers that he needs to help Mum so he perseveres and makes stalactites fall on Thanatos, killing him...

But Elliot has drunken too much of the lake water and passes out. Virgo then zooms down to the underworld to save Elliot but she knows she can't use her powers. But she decides to the underworld with it and uses her constellation to zoom back to Earth. Back at Home Farm, Patricia Porshley Plum, the Hooper's annoying, snobbish neighbour, has tricked Josie into signing papers, saying that Home Farm is officially hers. Elliot luckily gets revived by the Gods due to Aphrodite's kiss and uses the Earth Stone's powers to frighten Horse's Bum. But Zeus stops him and warns him about it's powers. Meanwhile, Hermes has dressed up as Porshley Plum and says that she is selling her house and donating all her money to charity. Horse's Bum run's out of the house screaming, then Hephaestus, God of the Forge, catapults her out of Home Farm and Little Motbury (the place where Elliot lives). During he story, Hephaestus build a enchanted fence to keep intruders out but the other characters always forget to "SHUT THE RUDDY GATE!"

It's Christmas time and Elliot instead of celebrating with his family, he celebrates with the Gods. Although, his Mum is there, representing his Family. The story finishes with a mystery character knocking on the door and Zeus being furious.
