About Gods of Imago

It has been ten years since Christopher Dante, the last storyteller, defeated the Ghul in the abandoned subway tunnels under Cogstin, and now he has vanished without a trace. There are rumors and whispers of a new evil emerging, ancient, dark, beyond the Black Mountains, a Horned God who rules the skeleton people of the north. Welcome to Gods of IMAGO, book two in the stunning IMAGO Series. Gods of IMAGO is literary dystopia at its absolute best, blending amazing world-building with thought-provoking, artful prose in an unforgettable, page-turning experience that will haunt the reader long after the last sentence.

You can find Gods of Imago here:
Amazon | Goodreads | Barnes & Nobel
