Honestly, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect with this story.  I knew it was going to involve characters from classic Greek mythology, but the description also mentions Noah, who I (wrongly) assumed was going to be based on Noah from the Bible.  What this short download turned out to be was a very entertaining parody of several characters from ancient mythology shown in a modern scenario.STORY - Noah is just an average, animal-loving guy that has an overly rough father and an extremely loving mother.  However, his life starts to slightly crumble as he is scammed by a teen girl into wrecking his car.  As Noah works to get his car fixed as quickly and cheaply as possible, chaos ensues when many people get involved.WRITING STYLE - The story may not sound like much, and that's mostly because I just can't do it justice by trying summarize it.  It's really quite a silly story that might make you laugh once or twice throughout.  It's not perfect; the author has a few typos spread throughout, and some of the things are a bit fantastic, even for mythology, but all in all, it's a really entertaining story that is also written well.  The author describes everything amazingly and actually develops each character to a high level, which is surprising, considering that this is such a short story.OVERALL - I can highly recommend this story as a fun, feel-good read.  If you don't know the first thing about Greek mythology, don't worry; you're still going to be able to enjoy this download.  This quirky fantasy story should definitely not be missed!WARNINGS - Language
