Calling all gods! The Great God Convention is on once more—this time there's word of a second coming. But nobody wants Jesus or his gal pal Mary Magdalene around. Watch the old gang assemble in Vancouver and see the cosmic sparks fly… Those invited include the African Orishas, the Norse Aesir, the Faerie Folk, the Greek Pantheon, and the Native-American Animal Elders (after all, Vancouver is in their neck of the woods). Those not invited (but planning to crash the party): Lucifer and his gang of angels, the CEO and Board of Patriarchy, Inc. Why? Jesus and Mary are indeed preparing for the Second Coming. But this time, they're going to get it right. At the center of their plans is a mortal, a teenage prostitute named Angela who is destined to be the mother of the Messiah. Did we mention she'll be a girl? But none of them have fully factored Lilith into their hopes and schemes. She is the vengeful first wife of Adam, and the estranged wife of Lucifer. Now a goddess who runs quite the house of ill repute in Vancouver, it is she who finds herself trapped in the divine battle for the new age. And it is she who will decide its outcome.
