Mia was a frustrated reporter working for a popular Neo-Pagan publication of dubious journalistic merit. On a damp and grey spring morning, she travels halfway across the city of Montreal to meet her friend and former lover Alex for an early lunch. Alex, a successful space lawyer for an emerging lunar mining company, offers Mia a job to investigate U.S. Senator Ethan Charles, who has recently launched a smear campaign against John Sotero, Alex's boss and the CEO of LuNation Mining International. A popular figure among the extremist fundamentalist fringe of the American right, Senator Charles has been threatening LuNation's future success by taking particular exception at Sotero's plans to cover the Moon's surface with solar panels to provide free energy to the developing nations of the world.In the hours and days that follow, Mia and Alex recruit a crew of misfits comprised of Pagans, geeks, a 'reformed' nun, and other unlikely allies to counter Charles' war of words. Together, the improbable heroes devise a scheme that will make the unrelenting Senator look as though he's planning to sabotage Sotero's altruistic venture through most improbable and imaginatively creative means. Hijinks, fueled by copious amounts of alcohol, ensue.

On the eve of her return to Olympus from her yearly journey circling the Earth, Hera, Queen of the gods and ardent protector of mortals, takes a moment to wistfully bear witness to the very last launch of humanity's soon-to-be-defunct space rocket programme. Perched upon a solitary mountaintop somewhere in North America's vast Boreal forest, the goddess encounters Prometheus, who reveals to her that her days of subtly guiding mortals in their heroic endeavors are far from over.Zeus, on the other hand, takes a dim view of his Queen's seemingly innocent chance encounter with his former foe, and begins to suspect that Prometheus harbors sinister intentions for his wife -- and for the gods of Olympus.Piqued by Zeus' paranoia, and encouraged by the goddess-Queens of old and the gods who dwell at the boundaries of the Earth, Hera defies her King, and undertakes a journey that will lead her to discover a past she had long forgotten, and embolden her to secure humanity's future as mortals set out to colonize the stars.
