Somewhere in the mix of immortals, gods, thieves, giants, angels, charioteers, mythical beasts, saints, dwarves, and demons, the boy-thief, Nikolas, awakens from his unbelief to witness the Pantheon Trials—a dangerous, yearly competition of excellence between the gods of this world. And they are all there: the sun gods, the moon gods, the healing gods, and the trickster gods, the gods creating war and the gods calming the seas. But when Nikolas’ talent is discovered by a secret order of thieves among the gods, he begins to make critical choices that—for better and for worse—will follow him for the rest of his life.
NIKOLAS AND THE PANTHEON TRIALS is the mythical, secretive origins of the boy-thief who will become known as Santa Claus.
