Gods Behaving Badly
Marie Phillips
Being immortal is not all it once was. Yes, the twelve Greek\ngods of Olympus are alive and well in the twenty-first century, but\nthey are crammed together in a London town house–and are none too\nhappy about it. Even more disturbing, their powers are\nwaning.

For Artemis (goddess of hunting, professional dog walker),\nAphrodite (goddess of beauty, telephone sex operator), and Apollo\n(god of the sun, TV psychic), there’s no way out–until a meek\ncleaner, Alice, and her would-be boyfriend, Neil, turn their world\nliterally upside down. When what begins as a minor squabble between\nAphrodite and Apollo escalates into an epic battle of wills, Alice\nand Neil are caught in the cross fire, and they must fear not only\nfor their own lives, but for the survival of humankind. Nothing\nless than a true act of heroism is needed–but can these two\ndecidedly ordinary people replicate the feats of the mythical\nheroes and save the world?

GODS BEHAVING BADLY is that rare thing: a charming, funny,\nutterly original first novel that satisfies the head and the\nheart.
