A fallen god and an orphaned survivor set out for revenge in a dark apocalyptic thriller from the “Master of British SF”
Amri was one of a tribe of survivors scratching out an existence on a shattered, poisoned world, until a weapon fell from the sky and consumed their home; now she’s alone, in the company of a fallen god who promises revenge against the three gods who killed her tribe. All he needs are followers, like any god…The Gods have returned to the world.
Amri was a Rabbit, one of a tribe of survivors scratching out an existence in the blasted landscape of a shattered, poisoned world. The Seagull fight, the Pigeon trade and the Cockroach scavenge, but the Rabbit had one rule: If you want to see tomorrow, you run.
But they didn’t run fast enough when a weapon fell from the sky and consumed their home, and now Amri is alone, in the company of a fallen god named Guy Vesten. A god who promises revenge against the three gods who turned against him, and who killed her tribe.
But gods don’t die easily. Guy will need followers, like any god, and warriors to aid him in his quest. And if Amri is to find a place in the world that is to come, she may as well be standing at his right hand, as his priestess…

“Tchaikovsky focuses the taut story in such a way that every detail is relevant, building towards a climax that feels like a perfect pay-off.” -- SFX Magazine on Firewalkers
