The eighth book of this dark urban fantasy series follows necromancer Eric Carter through a world of vengeful gods and goddesses, mysterious murders, and restless ghosts.

Luke Bennet and his partner, the dwifkin Zea, have reached the eastern continent. But the Pantheon hasn't given up trying to stop them, unleashing a horde of demons across the land in hopes of killing Luke once and for all. Wherever he goes, there are always more, ready to sink their claws into him. And no matter how many of them he defeats, he doesn't get any stronger. Because these beings exist outside of the system itself....

Luke Bennet isn't fighting alone anymore. The beautiful dwifkin Zea is stalwart by his side, and it's a good thing too. As if the battle-prone squirrel folk and otter-kin weren't enough, he's got mercenaries, bands of raiders, and a bloodthirsty inquisitor on his tail. All he wants is to get back his missing family. Can't a guy catch a break? To that end, Luke is honing his skills by battling all the beasts that get between him and completion of his mission. Still, he and Zea are both banking on a bloodline purification ritual to help them get to the God Machine.

On a secret military base tucked in a remote desert mountain, a dangerous machine lies hidden from the American public. Known as the Actuator, this machine is capable of transforming entire communities into alternate realities. In theory, these often terrifying realities are reversible. The scientists in charge of this machine employ operatives called Machine Monks, who attune their minds to manifest single ideas from the realms of fantasy and science fiction.
