IN THE BEGINNING, MAN WAS PREY. WITHOUT THE GODS, THEY'LL BE PREY AGAIN The old gods have fled, and the monsters they had kept at bay for centuries now threaten to drown the city of Valentine, hunting mankind as in ancient times. In the midst of the chaos, a serial killer has begun ritually sacrificing victims, their bodies strewn throughout the city. Lilac Antonis wants to stop the impending destruction of her city by summoning her mother, a blood god—even if she has to slit a few throats to do it. But evading her lover Arcadia and her friends means sneaking, lying, and even spilling the blood of people she loves. Alex and Cecil of Ace Investigations have been tasked with hunting down the killer, but as they close in—not knowing they're hunting their close friend Lilac—the detectives realize the gods may not have left willingly. As flooding drags this city of cars and neon screaming into the jaws of sea demons and Arcadia struggles to save the people as captain of the evacuation team, Lilac’s ritual killings at last bear fruit, only to reveal her as a small piece in a larger plan. The gods’ protection costs far more than anyone has ever known, and Alex and Cecil are running out of time to discover the true culprit behind the gods’ disappearance before an ancient divine murder plot destroys them all. Set in an alternate reality which updates mythology to near-modern day, No Gods For Drowning is part dark fantasy, part noir detective story, and unlike anything you've read before, from an author whose imagination knows no boundaries.

For two hundred years, painters, poets and musicians have come to the Catskill Mountain village of Arcadia Falls to escape the pressures of modern life and pursue their artistic visions, and Arcadia College was founded with a mission to nurture young artists and writers. When Meg Rosenthal gets an offer to teach at Arcadia College, it seems a godsend - an escape from a life that's fallen apart. She hopes, too, that Arcadia Falls will be a place where she and her daughter Sally can find some peace and reconciliation. But even though Arcadia Falls proves to be even more beautiful then Meg imagined, it is hardly peaceful. Soon she begins to realize that the public story behind the school conceals deceit, betrayal, and perhaps even murder. As Meg struggles to reconcile the choices she's made in her own life, she begins to fear that by coming to Arcadia Falls she's put herself and her daughter in danger.

"[...] "Nevertheless, Mr. Macpherson was successfully killed," remarked the professor dryly. "That would seem to be the persisting fact in the discussion. Does none of these things move you?" "Certainly not," returned the younger man. "I shall neither fall into the river, nor stand under a derrick whose guy lines are unsafe." Gardiner's smile was a mere eye wrinkle of good-natured cynicism. "You carefully omit poor Sanderson's fate. One swims out of a torrent-if he can-and an active young fellow might possibly be able to dodge a falling derrick. But who can escape the toils of the woman 'whose hands are as bands, and whose feet--'"[...]".

The future was stolen. Ideology overtook common sense and with it all human compassion. Complete and total freedom has shackled all but the very few to a life of debt and slavery. Even the very capable and bright suffer under the iron fist of corporate dominance. In this game the winners have won long ago. One individual abandoned at a young age and fleeing for his life, is about to turn the world on its head:Atlas awoke feeling damp. He turned slowly to his left and noticed a few metres away a brown rabbit was munching quietly. Atlas knew he wasn't going back to that world. If he wanted to belong he had to make his own world; and in this instant his world required food. He slipped his hand into his pocket and unsheathed the knife. He decided he could either run up on the rabbit, stab it or throw the knife. If he ran to the rabbit, it would very likely run for cover and he would lose his breakfast; however, if he threw the knife it might spin in the air and merely strike the rabbit with the handle.The rock caved in the head of the rabbit instantly. Atlas had thrown a large one from his position in an overarm motion at great speed, which didn't allow the rabbit to escape in time. He stood over it and rolled the rock back with his shoe; it was unpleasant to see the splattered skull so Atlas removed it swiftly and drained the blood. He cut out the lower bowels to avoid contamination; something he had read about, but he couldn't picture the book it had been in.He didn't have any means to cook this meat, so for now he carried the rabbit by its hind legs onwards northwest. His plan was to reach Almaty city. Hopefully he would be able to disappear among the hundreds of people, and find an orphanage like the ones he'd read about.

Africa's imagination has been dominated and overshadowed by pressing social and political issues, and its fiction has reflected this. But, in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, this tendency has been challenged by the rise of experimental fiction. This book examines this fiction and its contribution to the liberation of Africa's imagination.
