(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform Feb. 18, 2017)
The Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Greece and Rome had returned to Earth, with all their awesome powers intact, and Earth was transformed almost overnight. In this totally altered world, William Forrester was an acolyte of Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, and therefore a teacher, in this case of a totally altered history, and Maya Wilson, girl student, evidently had a totally altered way of grading in mind; but what else would a worshiper of Venus, Goddess of Love, have in mind?Earth has transformed overnight: The Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Greece and Rome have returned to Earth -- with all their awesome powers intact. War on any scale was outlawed, along with boom-and-bust economic cycles, and prudery -- but no change was more startling than the face of New York, where the Empire State Building has become the Tower of Zeus!In this altered world, William Forrester is an acolyte of Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, and therefore a teacher in this case of a totally altered history . . . but the fate that awaits him is a thing even more fantastic than the circumstances we've described!
