T.S. Lowe

She had only wanted to have a working marriage and a happy family. All of her efforts had been towards that goal. Despite that, her husband leaves her for another woman after the loss of her unborn child, and just as she starts to pick herself up, she dies in a car accident.

But this isn't the end of her story.

Her spirit is picked up by her brother. He happens to be a beginner god who needs help raising the hero who is supposed to save his fledgling world. Thinking he is offering her a long-sought-after opportunity to be a mother, she readily agrees, and he sends her down to his world with the gift of healing and a Methuselah grade body to aid her on her quest. She quickly finds her little boy and is overjoyed to have someone to love and baby at last. But this hero doesn't want her as his mother. He wants her as something else.

Suggested for ages 14+.

Raising a Hero

Miur never asked me what had occurred while I was in the army, and I didn't offer up much either. I did assure him, however, that I hadn't been raped or tortured, and he had looked a great deal relieved at that, though I also didn't mention the big holes in my memory the night he had rescued me. I had the feeling I hadn't been physically hurt other than my hand, but I couldn't help getting the impression that something bad had still happened, and that it was probably best that I didn't try too hard to remember.


Of course Miur didn't carry around a useful dress or something in his bags, so I had to ride along behind him while wearing that stinky, almost transparent, abomination of a nightgown until he got close enough to a town as he dared. He did lend me his cloak, however, to cover my fuzzing scalp, to which I was thankful. The last thing I wanted was a sunburnt bald head.
