First Family (The Age of Ra)

""All those gods of war... the many armed destroyers... the ones with dragon bodies... the warrior deities... the laughing gods who just wouldn't stand still... the solo gods perched in their lofty cloudtop citadles, defended by archangels, djinns, serpents, sword bearing armies... the thunder gods... the luck gods who kept on escaping us, against all the odds... the fire gods... the archer gods... the demons... the ineffable gods who were near impossible to find... the mischief gods who tried to trick their way out of trouble... the mad-eyed protective mother goddesses... you think it was easy?... Furies... Valkyries... frost giants... Oni... fairies... demigods too... it was gruelling... punishing... reletless... centuries... all our energies... we deserv our relaxation... we've earned it!""

In James Lovegrove's Fantasy novel "Age of Ra", the Egyptian Pantheon, after centuries/Millenia of cosmic warfare, have emerged triumphant over all earth's deities, slaying them and all supernatural beings associated with them. Jehovah, Allah, Zeus, Odin, Mother Earth, Frost Giants, Satan and the Fallen angels; all have been obliterated by the now one true Pantheon. The Egyptian gods partly prevailed by having their worshippers, such as the Free Masons, work worl events to have the worshippers of enemy gods war with each other, which weakened them. The other reason the Egyptian gods won was because of the First Family.

The First Family are four very, very powerful gods. The eldest of them were created by Ra the Su god, when he sneezed or spat in the beginning. The male god thus forged was Shu, the Egyptian Atlas, the God of air who held up the sky. His wife and sister, Tefnut, is the Goddess of rain and moisture. Together they sired Geb, god of the earth, and all encompassing Nut, Goddess of sky. Geb loved Nut, a union that did not sit well with Shu, who used his powers and the air to keep earth and sky seperate. Geb also had a lust for his mother Tefnut, and was said to have raped her, yet rumors persist that she didn't mind. Yet the gods were close to each other, and in the war of the gods they battled whole pantheons, legions of angels and fiety Djinns, and with the aid of their human allies, they won the war, which brought about a revival of ancient Egyptian faith, which now dominates the globe. Though severely weakened by their battles, they are still the most powerful beings known to the gods, and though they do not usurp authority from Ra, King of the Gods, they are nevertheless respected and feared...
