"Supreme Goddess of Wisdom & War?"
"War & Wisdom," she said. "Tells you something about their priorities, doesn't it?" Mortal Coil: Dog Days The gods don't visit the Mortal Coil anymore, and for good reason, after What Happened Last Time. The criminals have unionised, the Steward is corrupt, and the City of Veils is still a den of iniquity, even after the priests left. But the Festival of Masks is coming soon, and there are rumours that a god will be present... When Moxy Lynn accidentally infuses two copper dog statues with the bickering twin aspects of Aikyamaya, Supreme Goddess of War & Wisdom, she quickly finds herself on a hilarious adventure, at least for the reader, if not for Moxy. She meets Windhook, the half-tree, fake charlatan, smokes Dreamleaf with the Goddess of Indulgences, and faces off against the Chayya Syndicate, all on the way to help Aikyamaya find her semi-human-half-brother at the End Of The World. Perfect for fans of Discworld, Mortal Coil: Dog Days is a hilarious fantasy trek through a world as rich as Moxy's tame corrupt billionaire, Spacer Goodman. Comedy, satire, divine bureaucracy accompany Moxy and the gang, with a Fallen Deity TM on their tails, in a surprisingly powerful story, for a book that doesn't take itself very seriously at all.
