Arcane Antiques and Relics: Patriarchy is not natural

Enough with the patriarchy. When the ancient patriarchy of the heavens becomes a cage, goddesses wager the fate of two women to dismantle the masculine reign. Hecate, a shadowy presence, has been meticulously orchestrating the return of feminine dominion over the cosmos and their forgotten devotees. Her motives are subtle. She persuades the masculine deities to bestow fragments of their divine power, to be enshrined within the vault at Arcane Antiques and Relics, which a masculine Doyle has always managed. Angus Doyle is gone, leaving his sole inheritor, a daughter, a fact bound to chafe the misogynistic pantheon. The Deae shield Aisling Doyle from birth, in the humid, moss-draped embrace of the Louisiana swamps. Fiona McBride, the Goddess Hecate, bestows upon a timid, emotionally isolated young woman a crucial mission, one that will lead her to the mist-shrouded Fairy Court of Seelie in Ireland. Imagine your name forgotten or your history rewritten by insecure men.
