Office Gods Office Gods

Catharina Octorina

eBook - 2023

Gods, demigods, and true romance? Office Gods, based on the hit webcomic, is an addictive rom-com set in the corporate HQ of the Olympians themselves! Iris, a young human woman, is swept into the world of divine bureaucracy when she's recruited to work in the office of the gods, in the department of Hermes. The gods and goddesses may be beautiful beyond human comprehension, but she quickly learns that they're every bit as petty and quarrelsome as they were thousands of years ago. Can she survive Eros' antics, Aphrodite's temper, and getting caught between a love triangle with the demigod sons of Athena and Hades?

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Octorina (Maid for Hire) and Hiikariin's flighty office rom com comes with a supernatural romantasy twist: it's set in a world where the gods and demigods of Olympus are corporate CEOs. Ordinary human woman Iris has somehow managed to land a job delivering interoffice memos at the deities' prestigious corporation, which is located in a lofty 1,000--foot-tall office tower. On her first day, she upsets Eros, embarrasses herself in front of Orion, makes an enemy out of Dante, and develops an office crush. This is the first volume collecting the ongoing webtoon that follows Iris's struggles to perform her day-to-day duties in a business not at all designed to human scale. The worldbuilding and character designs are convincingly otherworldly, though the art is just serviceable. The comic paneling and flow don't fluently convert from the vertical scroll online; some panel sequences end up difficult to parse. Still, for insatiable fans of Lore Olympus, this is a fresh and fun take on Greek mythology. (Nov.)
