Welcome to the One Spire Inn, the only hotel in town that accepts fairy tale monsters as guests.

Can a retired monster-hunter and an inebriated fallen angel keep these new guests in line?


Jean-Luc Matthias promised to help these wayward mythical creatures... a promise he plans on keeping even if it figuratively or (the more probable option) literally kills him. Too bad he's a man of his word.

But preparing fae, succubi, poltergeists, and twice-fallen angels for mortal life is just the start of his problems.

A powerful demon is terrorizing the city. And what’s worse, the creature’s bloody deeds are exhuming Jean-Luc’s past.

A past that could destroy everything he's built.

But if the creature isn't stopped, it might just trigger the apocalypse. Again.

Now Jean-Luc has a choice to make: Stay quiet and hope the storm blows over, or dust off his slayer instincts, thus risking everything and everyone.

"Mythology, satire, and brutal honesty. Vance delivers a knockout punch of fun and fearlessness in every last one of his books. Not only does he make you laugh, he makes you think. That's a rare combination that few authors ever achieve, and Vance does it splendidly." — John P. Logsdon, author of the Paranormal Police Department series.

The GoneGod World is a unique setting of myths, magic and mischief. But what is the GoneGod World?

Four years ago, the gods left. All of them. Their last message to humanity was "Thank you for believing in us, but it is not enough. We're leaving. Good luck."

At first no one took them seriously. Until, that is, all the denizens of all the heavens and hells started showing up on people's doorsteps.

Creatures from every religion, mythology, folklore or fairytale now live among us, mortal and homeless. Trouble is, after eons of living forever, elves, dragons, dwarves, oni-demons, even friggin’ Medusa aren't very good at being mortal.

Welcome to the GoneGod World...where not only are myths real, but they can kill you, too.
