Over a God's Dead Body: A Supernatural Comedy (Wrong Gods Book 1)
Book Details
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
