The Pitfalls of Being a Goddess - by Eva Leppard (Paperback)

About the Book

When Brigid accidentally becomes the co ruler of the universe, she finds herself not only having to save the world from an ancient evil, but also having to wrangle her ageing hippy co-ruler. She's not sure which one is the most challenging.

Book Synopsis

Brigid Humboldt is a high school teacher who has worked hard to fashion a predictable, ordinary life after an anything but ordinary childhood. When scientists turn on the Large Hadron Collider, Brigid, inexplicably, becomes the co ruler of, well, everything. She quickly realises that not only must she learn the ropes of a new and not particularly welcomed job, she must also try and work out just which of the apparently multitudinous dark forces that surround her is trying to plunge the planet into an eternal pit of torment.

With the assistance of her new age parents, an officious spectral administrative executive and a regretful warlock with a deep and abiding interest in 80s cafe food, Brigid uncovers secrets about the liminal worlds that exist above our own. Is it just her own life that she has never been able to understand? Or is the very nature of existence far more bizarre than she could have ever imagined?
