The gods went to war. Humanity almost didn't survive.

After a cataclysmic war among a thousand pantheons, the last of humanity clings to life in Bastion -- a colossal ringed city carved from a single piece of stone, surrounded by an endless desert haunted by the dead. The surviving gods rule through a rigid caste system, feeding on the worship of the mortals they "saved." The rich rings thrive. The outer rings starve. And the peace is a lie held together by fear, faith, and public sacrifice.

Nuru is a street sorcerer from the outer ring -- a gang member, a survivor, and an untrained talent who fuels her magic with narcotics and sheer will. When a banished god contacts her from beyond the wall, she sees a chance to change everything. She has no idea what she's agreeing to.

Akachi is a priest of Cloud Serpent, born to privilege in the inner rings. Sent to bring order to the outer ring, he discovers that everything he was taught about Bastion -- its gods, its history, its justice -- may be a carefully constructed lie.
Their paths collide as Mother Death claws her way back into the city, and the war of the gods begins again -- with Bastion's last humans caught in the middle.

"The fertile soil of Mesoamerican mythology, warped through the lens of Fletcher's hyperkinetic imagination, yields hypnotic, terrifying results." -- Brian Staveley
