    About this ebook

    Come listen in on a card game of the Greek gods.

     

    Every week, Zeus and Hera host a card game and invite two other various Greek gods, goddesses, or everyday heroes or heroines to join them.

     

    The upside: The winner gets to petition Zeus for a favor. The downside: If you beat immortals at one of their own games, they get moody. Sometimes angry.

     

    Today, Nike, the goddess of victory, really wants to win a favor from Zeus. She feels hopeful.

     

    But the gods' card games always follow unpredictable paths.

     

    If you enjoy tales of the Greek gods and goddesses, buy "Nike Plays Cards" today!

     

    This story originally appeared in the collection Tales of the Fates: Everyday Goddess Stories, Volume 2, by R.S. Kellogg.
