From the publisher (source: The Internet Book List):
From Zeus to Dionysus, from Hades to heart of a bustling city, the modern-day bards included in this anthology have created masterful tales which bring a fascinating assortment of mythical beings out of the mists of time and right into our lives.
From a god who has outlived his worshipers to one who is about to discover he has acquired a very elite clientele...from a Zeus-spawned curse that may lead to unforeseen romance to a mortal who dared to ride the skies no matter what the cost...here are seventeen tales of romance and revenge, of boons begged and given—for better or for worse—of life, death and the realms that lie between.
Edited by Martin H. Greenberg and Bruce D. Arthurs
