The Blood of Four Gods and Other Stories

Journey into a world of myth and magic, of mystery and monsters. Within these pages, you'll find: Mayan gods stalking through the cloud forest and lurking in the underworld; steam-powered golems patrolling crowded city streets; fox and fish spirits struggling with love and loss; a dragon doling out justice; a metal snake scheming for worship, and more.
