The young inhabitants of the spaceship Plexus (please italicize) have never set foot on Earth. A few of their parents might be a little homesick once in a while, but without any contact with the planet, their species's home is rarely on their minds. The ship, safe and reliable, harbors them through the vacuum of space as two crews switch between four-year-long bouts in suspended animation. Their mission: to find an inhabitable planet where they can start a new life.
This book is neither a modernized mythical tale nor a computer geek/hacker story -- it's both. Ravirn is a mortal with Titan Chaos in his blood and a computer hacker who can get into just about anything in his world ruled by Greek gods, Fates, and Furies. But his Greek familiars don't rule everything, as he finds out when he is very unwillingly transported into a strange new MythOS dominated by Norse gods, and Greek beings are no more than fairy tales.
This book isn't part of a genre, but a mix of sci-fi and fantasy, and has several threads of plot happening at once. One thread involves Chris, a school kid whose mission in life is to be cool and be accepted by other "cool" kids.
