While others just want to come out on top in an apocalypse, Truth hopes to take down an evil god, in the epic final installment of this urban fantasy series.
Truth knows everything about the mind-controlling Starbrite. Well, everything except for who it is, where it comes from, and where it is right now. Without anything to identify his world's creator, the question remains: Can he actually kill the malignant entity believed to have the lifespan of the stars themselves?
Somewhere, high above the calamity it's caused, Starbrite still reigns. Unseeable and enigmatic, it touches the world through the minds of its slaves. But Truth is far from alone in wanting to topple the king of the world. From corporate boardrooms and suburban homes to brutal battlefields, it seems everyone has a scheme of their own. And lurking behind the chaos is the shadow of Merkovah, the ancient spymaster who's spent six hundred years trying to bring down Starbrite. There are few things he wouldn't sacrifice to achieve victory now. But when everyone has their own agenda, who can you trust?
It turns out, if you need to bring down a god, scammers and a marketing department will do the trick. With his new team behind him, Truth plans to use Starbrite's own resources to break its heavy grip on the people. And as Starbrite's followers begin losing their faith, Truth will sharpen his sword and prepare to cut off the head of the snake.
But in a dying world convulsed with war, conspiracy, and revolution, Truth may have to pull off something even more impossible than killing an unknowable tyrant: persuading the world that there is still hope. He'll need to show everyone there are things worth fighting for, and he'll use every dirty trick in the book to do it-because Starbrite has ruled the world for far too long. He's starting to look less like a god and more like a cornered rat these days. And there's nothing a cornered rat won't do to survive . . .
The sixth volume of the hit cyberpunk fantasy series-with more than a million views on Royal Road-now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!
