The gods are dying; the old gods, and the new. Technology is their poison. As they die, they take with them everything that make humans ... human.
Only the mythical Greenman has a plan ... and he has to enlist the help of three fools to save the gods, the myths, and all of humanity. Together, the three fools must fulfill the prophecy carved into the limbs of the dying Greenman and rally the remaining myths to battle a powerful cybernetic army. Along the way, they must learn the value of their own lives, find their own personal strengths through the fog of their failures, and reteach humanity what it means to be human, to be passionate, and to be truly alive. If mythology is the fantastic story of humanity, what is lost when we stop believing in both?
When Science and Religion battle to the death ... which side will you fight for?
If Joseph Campbell, Neil Gaiman, Christopher Moore and Douglas Adams had a love-child, this book would be that child! This comedic fantasy builds on Joseph Campbell's extensive study of mythology and archtypes to tell an epic story of everyday losers finding the heroes inside them. Using comedy, adventure and cinematic storytelling, it is a perfect introduction to mythological characters and creatures from over 280 cultures, spanning more than 35,000 years of recorded mythology.
