    About this ebook

    What happens when a deity needs a human body?

     

    They go to the source, of course. 

     

    Eshu the Trickster needs a mortal form for his mischievous plans, but the only other Orisha who can help him swore off the practice ages ago.

     

    It will take careful scheming to convince the Original Architect to come out of retirement. Any misstep and Eshu will be thrown from the Sky Realm. 

     

    What's worse, Eshu hasn't visited the heavens for several centuries. Would his former comrade even be the same? How can Eshu persuade someone he barely knows anymore?

     

    Find out in this prequel short story to The Gatekeeper's Staff, a young adult fantasy based on the West African mythology of the Orishas.
