Good Gods Rebooted

Set in the present day, the Ancient Gods of Greece, Zeus, Hera, Hermes Aphrodite and Apollo have been called by Dionysus, the God of Wine to his flat in England. He has heard on the grape vine that there are two new gods heading to Mount Olympus, one, the Goddess of Health & Safety, the other the God of Beaurocracy & Red Tape. Once they arrive they stop all the gods from using their powers because of the dangers involved unless they fill out the relevant paperwork. The gods are determined to get their powers back but cannot find a way. Not only that but when a mortal, Kate, stumbles in on the gods, Hermes takes an immediate liking to her. Falling in love with a mortal? It seems as though things have gone from bad to worse!
