You’d think being able to see the future would be a gift – but Prometheus’s visions are never completely clear, and he learns that not everyone wants to see what lies ahead.  When he glimpses a coming war that will threaten the whole world, Prometheus knows he must forge an unlikely alliance with the young Olympian Zeus.  But their friendship is tested when they find they have very different ideas about how to restore a shattered world. 

Several suitors have been foolish enough to compete for Atalanta’s hand, and all have lost their races – and their lives.  If even princes can’t compete with her, how can a poet somehow find a way to win the race and capture the heart of the princess of Arcadia?
