In Over a God's Dead Body, Joel Spriggs whisks us away to a small Indiana town where the ordinary meets the extraordinary in the most hilarious ways. Esmy and her librarian brother Jake lead a mundane life until an encounter with the Norse god Loki sets off a chain of absurdly comedic events. Their quiet college town reveals a hidden world of sasquatches, vampires, and other mystical beings, turning their lives upside down.
As Loki, ensnared in his own mischievous plots, finds himself bound to an Egyptian god's nefarious plans, Esmy and Jake discover they are more than mere mortals. In a town brimming with supernatural chaos, the siblings find themselves in the center of a high-stakes game that could determine the fate of gods and humans alike.
Why You'll Love This Book:- A Laugh-Out-Loud Urban Fantasy: Praised for its offbeat humor and inventive storyline, this book offers a wild ride through a brilliantly crafted supernatural world.
- Dynamic Blend of Mythologies: From Norse to Egyptian to Haitian pantheons, enjoy a riotous mix of mythologies served with a side of snark and satire.
- Intriguing Characters and Bawdy Humor: With characters as unpredictable as the plot, the story delivers both dark humor and satirical elements, reminiscent of works by Pratchett and Gaiman.
- Whimsical and Witty Storytelling: Spriggs' narrative style is a blend of fantastical elements, absurd humor, and sharp wit, making for a truly unique and engaging read.
Over a God's Dead Body is more than just a supernatural comedy; it's a testament to the power of imagination and the joy of reading something refreshingly different. If you're a fan of American Gods, Buffy, or just looking for a story that combines humor, fantasy, and a touch of the absurd, this is the book for you. Dive into the first book of the Wrong Gods series and join Esmy, Jake, and Loki in an adventure that's as hilarious as it is unexpected.
Where gods and mortals collide in the most uproarious ways - a fantastical journey you won't want to miss!
