"The Gods are Restless.
For centuries, otherworldly gods have invaded the land by possessing the bodies of humans to spread their influence. They wreak havoc, destroying their hosts in the process, before discarding them like trash and moving on to the next. Their power is unmatched, and no human has ever withstood their corruption. Except one.
The Gods are Planning Something.
Grizzled adventurer Jarret Atomo has had enough. Having learned the truth behind the gods’ authority, Jarret shoulders the weight of saving the world from their schemes as the only one who can lock them away.
The Gods are Fallible.
Forming an alliance with an icy witch, the unlikely pair of heroes set out to overthrow the Lord of Spring and challenge his seemingly unequivocal rule... by devouring him whole.
The Gods will Pay.
