LORE OLYMPUS launches its first official cookbook this July

Fans of Rachel Smythe’s Eisner Award–winning webcomic Lore Olympus can soon add a new collectible to their shelves—and their kitchens. Launching July 1, The Official Lore Olympus Cookbook invites readers to step into the divine world of Greek mythology through food.

Published by Inklore, an imprint of Penguin Random House, the cookbook features 60 recipes inspired by the beloved characters and lush aesthetics of Smythe’s New York Times bestselling series. Co-authored by Smythe, Women of Myth writer Genn McMenemy, and Greek cuisine expert Diana Moutsopoulos, the collection is organized by season, offering dishes for every time of day—from breakfast to dinner to dazzling themed feasts.

Among the Olympian offerings are Persephone’s honey-drenched baklava, a color-changing mocktail favored by Hecate, and soul-warming souvlaki that even Hades could make indoors. With full-color photography, sumptuous illustrations, and a heartfelt foreword by Smythe herself, the cookbook blends mythology, fandom, and food into one irresistible volume.

With the webcomic’s massive global following and growing print presence, The Official Lore Olympus Cookbook is expected to be a summer hit for both readers and foodies. Whether you’re a long-time Lore Olympus devotee or just a lover of Greek cuisine with a flair for the dramatic, this cookbook promises an epic culinary journey worth the ambrosia.
