A god waits to be reborn ... and plunge the world into chaos, in this sensuous new thriller by the author of Glimmering.Kamensic Village is quiet, sleepy, a world away from the riotous Hollywood life. But when notorious film director Axel Kern comes home to Kamensic Village, the whole town is swept up in Kern's frenzied partying. For seventeen-year-old Lit Golding, the change is fascinating -- and terrifying. For Lit is somehow at the center of Kern's plans: plans for his own rebirth as Dionysus, the ancient god of madness and ecstasy. If Kern succeeds, if Lit and her friends cannot stop him, humanity will be catapulted into a new world, a new age of chaos and dark desires: the Age of Dionysus. Sensuous, lyrical writing from the award-winning author of the cult classic Waking the Moon.
