Balance, something hard to attain, and even harder to sustain. Almost like walking a sword's edge, everyone waits with baited breath to see if you will be able to walk along it, or if you will fall to the side.

It is infinitely harder when you must oversee the balance of other people, but to try and force it upon gods? Impossible, or so most think.

Artemis must find a balance of her own, in her duty. First though, she must discover what her new duties are. 

She has gone from a student studying in Greece to an embodiment of retribution, the successor of Nemesis herself. Another task for the list, how does a goddess die?

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
