  • After having been trapped in his office for ten thousand years Lacerto, the god of small to medium-sized lizards, escapes to seek revenge. They say when you go looking for revenge, dig two graves. If you’re a god, make sure one of them is the size of Mount Olympus. They say when you go looking for revenge, dig two graves. If you’re a god, make sure one of them is the size of Mount Olympus. To keep himself out of that grave, Lacerto will have to win and wield a divine weapon that takes the form of a brutally sarcastic salamander, take on the entire pantheon of gods, and control a human lawyer to whom he accidentally assigned god-like power when she became his pope. But at least there will be alcohol. And snark. “In the wry spirit of James Morrow and Terry Pratchett, Max Cantrell’s A Tale of Gods, Mortals, and Jell-O Shooters is a high-minded, hilarious spin on power both mortal and divine.” -Joshua Corin, Author of Nuclear Winter Wonderland, Cost of Life, and Marvel’s Deadpool: Too Soon

  • After one of their number is killed for the first time in recorded history, the entire divine world unites to eliminate the murderer, our hero, Lacerto. To survive the oncoming storm, of several pantheons of angry gods, he must gain powerful allies with a grudge against the gods. Fortunately, after millennia of abuse, many, many, many deadly monsters are chomping at the bit to strike back at their oppressors, with a weapon that can finally hurt them. But are Lacerto’s allies more dangerous than his enemies? And can he stop the machinations of the goddess of war, as she uses the chaos he caused to bring about the end times?
