A modern-day tale of Greek mythological folly, this story follows the spoiled and vain Hera, who yearns for a family at any cost, as she pursues macho Zeus, still on the prowl in the 21st century. Meanwhile, Zeus, having given a family some cursory effort, is attempting to find himself in wine, women of all descriptions, and male rituals engaged in by his very own new age cult. Blind passion is truly a disaster when it involves the gods, leading to broken hearts, shattered dreams, and entomologically enhanced offspring. It is left to an unlikely band of mortals and one determined water nymph to somehow rein in the Olympian chaos.

Industry Reviews

"Delightfully told... this tale of jealousy and love among gods and humans belongs in most fantasy collections..." -- Library Journal. "In the humorous style of Tom Robbins, this novel tells an amusing yet wise story about love and power." -- Foreword Magazine. "
