Gaea, the earth goddess, losing patience with Man because of his brutal, uncaring treatment of her planet and her creatures, decides to hit back--with the help of her relatives, the gods of the seas, storms and winds.
The heavenly Design Center is where it all happens: new worlds, new species, are planned and built here, prototypes are tested, and the creations are sparked into life. Earth's greatest inventors, craftsmen and artists work here among the angels, contributing their skills and ideas. There's a great restaurant, too, with Saint Lawrence himself, patron saint of chefs, cooking personally for distinguished visitors. Among whom, one fine day in early summer, is Earth’s goddess, Gaea, dining in the company of Quant the seraph and saints George, Sebastian and Stephen—for the Lord's family is large and varied, and all its members are expected to get along together. Mostly they do get along, though Gaea is hopping mad at the way she has been treated by mankind lately. She herself has been the subject of a brutal assault, her animals, birds and fish are suffering, and her environment, her very fabric, is under attack.
The goddess decides to hit back and show Man that he needs to improve his behavior, in his own best interest. She calls in her relatives to assist her in persuading humans to mend their ways before they cause irrecoverable damage: men must learn to share earth’s resources and respect the planet that supports them. “Mister don’t care” must be made to care.
In “Gaea,” readers meet up with old friends and make new acquaintances, though in this strange quantum cosmos that we live in, maybe “old” and “new” are relative terms. Did the past slip away or is the ancient world still pretty current—in a timeless universe? And if the gods are still around, will Man learn the lesson they are trying to teach him?
