How do you break a god out from a cosmic prison?

You bring a crew and a whole lot of magic.

TJ has already dealt with ancient African gods, and now he’s being blamed for the death of Thor!

Last year’s conflict with the Orishas of the ocean led to the greatest natural disaster in modern history. Tidal waves thrashed the coast of West Africa, skyscrapers fell, and TJ was left with internal and external scars.

But the Mortal Realm wasn’t the only place affected by the destruction. The events of one dimension disturbed another, and now a council of gods accuses TJ of the death of the Norse god of thunder. Worse, the Orisha of Lightning, Shango, has been imprisoned as well for the same charges.

It’ll be up to TJ and his friends to clear his name and save Shango. But TJ knows how difficult it is to deal with the Almighty, so he gathers a crew and prepares for a heist for the ages. 

Will TJ succeed, or will he be faced with a life sentence in a cosmic prison?

Find out in this young adult fantasy based on the mythology of West Africa, where TJ will encounter cosmic trials, unbreakable prisons, and the ancient secrets of the Orishas.
