At the intersection of the magical and the mundane, Alis Franklin's thrilling debut novel reimagines mythology for a modern world--where gods and mortals walk side by side. Working in low-level IT support for a company that's the toast of the tech world, Sigmund Sussman finds himself content, if not particularly inspired.

Then in walks the new guy with the unpronounceable last name who immediately becomes IT's most popular team member.
