Mike Vasich strips away the facade of ancient myths to find the jagged edges. He destroys the idea of heroes and embraces the chaos of disillusionment. These are not revised folklore; they are visceral, irreverent dives into the dark corners where the divine and mortal collide. This is existential dread masked in the blood and grit of gods.
Exiled and tortured by the gods, Loki swears vengeance. He will summon the mighty Fenris Wolf and the legendary Midgard Serpent, and they will lead an army of giants and all the dead in Niflheim. Brimming with the power of the most destructive being in the Nine Worlds, he will not rest till Asgard is in ashes and all the gods are dead under his heel.
He is called the Trickster, the Sly One. For eons, he has manipulated and played the gods against each other. Now the time has come to go beyond petty schemes and seize the most powerful throne in existence. Based on the classic tales, Mike Vasich breathes new life into the most complex god in the Norse mythos.
An ancient text so revolutionary it will change the face of Christianity forever. When Professor Cerise Davenport receives a picture of an ancient scroll, she has no idea that her life is about to be shattered. Accompanied by a mysterious six-year-old girl with no past, she flees from a cabal of shadowy figures bent on wiping away any trace of her existence. As she tracks down the head of the conspiracy, she makes a discovery that will transform her life irrevocably—and bring her face to face with God himself.
In the tall grasses, faceless things with long, spindly arms and razor sharp claws wait for Sarah and her brother Ben. Except they aren't real. It's just a story told by their grandfather, a story he tells them when they find an old sword in his basement storage room. There are monsters, a mysterious white lady, and of course the magic sword itself, a weapon that helps him defeat the creatures he finds in the jungles of Vietnam forty years before. At ten years old, Sarah knows that monsters and magic swords aren't real. But then Sarah's school begins to turn into a jungle, and she sees quick glimpses of creatures with no faces peering at her from between long stalks of grass. As her world continues to change around her, she begins to wonder if the story—and the creatures—aren't just made up after all.
