Books, Manuscripts
Five years after the Great Fire of Lundun, ex-dragoon Laqua is lured into helping the Keepers of the Light, a secret band that fight the equally clandestine Cult of the Death of Hope. The Cult would bring down the empire of the Moors and, indeed, all civilisation. The key to defeating them is an ancient secret Scroll, the final chapter of the Sacred Script, its authenticity assured by the same Seal. While the Cult would destroy it, the Keepers intend to publish it for all to read, but they do not yet have the means to achieve that goal, so Laqua is charged with helping to keep it safe until they do. Ahead of him lie spying, fighting, loving, torture and tragedy, and the discovery of a dreadful truth. 'As Ants to the Gods' is an alternate history adventure, ribald, irreverent and disturbing.
