Over a God's Dead Body: A Supernatural Comedy (Wrong Gods Book 1)
Description
An Urban fantasy and humor tale pulling mythology of the Gods from Norse, Egypt and voodoo cultures. This epic story takes place at a college we can all relate to and sprinkled in there’s a dash of magic and necromancy - Zombie ducks!
Three gods walk onto a college campus looking for a dead body. A bad joke, a bad day, or both?
Loki hates being bound to Seth, the most micromanaging of all the Egyptian Gods. But when their quest to regain Seth's crown leads to a boring midwest town where nothing happens, Loki discovers a family he never wanted to admit may exist.
This story includes:
Esmy is singularly frustrated by the lack of pockets in women's clothing and being stuck in a rut with fixing the same crappy WiFi issues day in and day out. But when it turns out her great-grandfather is Loki, that ignites her life like a powder-keg. Leading her to discover her own college campus's mysterious depths, involving voodoo priestesses, sasquatches, vampires, Canadians who hate girl scout cookies and the magical ability to have a pocket bigger than a closet.
In a high-stakes game of maneuvering, Loki's freedom and Esmy's survival come down to a fight over a God's dead body.
Here’s what readers are saying:
- "Joel Spriggs is hilarious and fills the Pratchett void."
- "I so enjoyed this book! There are elements of dark humour and satire reminiscent of Pratchett but I found the plot original and colourful throughout. I loved the mixture of different mythologies and rituals. Highly recommended!"
- Louisa Dwyer, Author of The Firebird's Trail - “Over a God's Dead Body is the best urban fantasy story I've read this year. There's a cracking flow to the narrative and some superb imagery. As well as being a grittily realistic there are also laugh out loud moments. ”-Jame Kemp, themself.org
