Mary Brown, a divorced, forty year old housewife with five children suddenly finds herself eighteen years old, nude and lost in a land far different from anything she's ever seen. Then, she meets Fred and life gets infinitely more complicated. She's killed! Shortly afterward, she finds herself revived and pitted against Donovan Fausto in a life or death struggle. The best she can hope for is that she only gets herself killed. A horrific nuclear winter and a new "Dark Age" is far more likely. But first, Mary has to survive Boogey Monsters and their deadly short swords. A knife of her own would help, not to mention clothing, boots and a few friends to help her survive her first day in Galatia. Still, considering she needs years of training and experience if she means to match Donovan Fausto and she only has three weeks in which to do it, maybe it might be simpler for Mary if she dies. That way, she can't be blamed for the catastrophe to follow.

Heavy Metal by Natalie J. Damschroder The world is not what Riley Kordek imagined. On the run from those who've targeted her, all Riley wants is a chance to figure out her new ability to bend metal's energy. When a hot guy who knows more than he should helps her escape her attackers, she thinks she might've found someone who can lead her to the answers she needs. Three years ago, Sam Remington walked away from his employer and the woman he loved, and now, all he's looking to do is fill the gaping hole left behind. Except, when Sam takes Riley to the Society for Goddess Education and Defense, the stakes rise beyond what either of them could have imagined. After being alone for so long, falling for Sam would be far too easy for Riley—and far too painful, once his old flame calls needing his help. Worse, Riley uncovers a plot with disastrous ramifications not only for herself, but for Sam and the people he loves—and potentially every goddess in the country.

She’s transformed into his weapon—the Dragon’s death-bringer, using her gifts to conquer nations and unleash demons. Yet there’s a part of Lira not even the Dragon can stifle, and the soul-reader must find a way to free herself before he declares war against the gods. After the warrior Reyker Lagorsson attempted to overthrow the Dragon, Reyker’s soul was fractured. Now, he’s a shadow of his former self, and his battle-madness grows stronger by the day. Reyker will stop at nothing to kill the Dragon and his mysterious death-bringer before his curse consumes him.

This volume contains all the prayers included in Devotion: Prayers to the Gods of the Greeks and In Praise of Olympus: Prayers to the Greek Gods. There are a very few additional pieces, which are also available online at Underflow: Prayers to the Greek Gods at http: //greekpagan.wordpress.com.
