In Jasper and the Salamander, a novel by J. J. Caler, Jasper is a reluctant pirate who falls in love with Maeve, a beautiful tavern girl, in the 1720s Bahamas. After their daughter Erin is born, they are transported to 1912 by a vortex and witness the sinking of the Titanic. They then discover that they are part of a cosmic conflict between the Greek gods, especially Ares, who wants to claim Jasper as his warrior, and Aphrodite, who is Maeve's mother and protector. Jasper resists Ares' temptations and earns the support of Athena, Eris, and Poseidon. They settle in England and survive two world wars, only to be killed by a V2 rocket. However, in another twist of fate they reunite with their daughter, who inherits a magical talisman and armor from Aphrodite, Eris and Athena. The story ends with a cliffhanger for the sequel, where Erin will embark on a new adventure with her parents, uncles, and the goddesses.
