In the 1950s, Confidential magazine, America's first celebrity scandal magazine, revealed Hollywood stars' secrets, misdeeds, and transgressions in gritty, unvarnished detail. Deploying a vast network of tipsters to root out stars' sexual affairs, drug use, and sexuality, publisher Robert Harrison destroyed celebrities' carefully constructed images and built a media empire. Confidential became the best-selling magazine on American newsstands in the 1950s, surpassing Time, Life, and the Saturday Evening Post. Confidential's spectacular rise was followed by an equally spectacular fall.

When old friends fall prey to new threats, there’s no debate and no delay. I have to help—before the gods burn everything I love to the ground, and something worse grows from the ashes. It’s time to grab a team, grab my sword, and grab a ride.

Delano, man turned Apprenti turned god-eater, has staked his claim on our world, and he’s calling all gods and monsters to his side. There’s nowhere for mankind to run and nowhere to hide. We either fight now or bow to his will forever. And there’s no way in heaven or hell I’m going to bow to scum like him. My name is Vic Stratton. I have a team. I have a plan. I have the freaking sword of the gods at my side. But am I ready to save the world?

I’m Vic Stratton, and I can survive anything the Forgotten throw at me. But I can’t say the same for those who look to me for protection. In fact, they’re a bit of a mess. Hunted by the gods and dogged by their minions, with a serial killer hidden among our ranks, the New York City exiles stand little chance out on the open road. Good thing we’re not alone. Me and my team of unlikely allies must find a place to hide the survivors before they become victims like the rest. But the hidden military base I’m looking for could be more deadly than the road we’ve left behind.

OK, so I accepted Kronin’s call to defeat the Forgotten Gods and save the earth. But don’t thank me yet. Just because I’m on the job doesn’t mean it will be easy—even with the Gladius Solis at my side and the power of Carcerum coursing through my veins. The problem is that the Forgotten aren’t your run of the mill villains. They’re, well...gods. Which means they’re violent, powerful, and crafty as hell. And all manner of human scum is flocking to their side. Along with my vampire problems, strange beauties have started appearing throughout the country, seducing men and women of great power.

Thousands of years ago, ancient deities fought a civil war that nearly destroyed the earth. They were defeated by a great warrior—and banished to spend eternity beyond the reach of the humans who once served them. Their war is raging once again. And once again, it will require a great hero to save humanity. Unfortunately for humanity, I’m that hero.

Twenty thousand years ago, women were making and wearing the first clothing created from spun fibers. In fact, right up to the Industrial Revolution the fiber arts were an enormous economic force, belonging primarily to women. Despite the great toil required in making cloth and clothing, most books on ancient history and economics have no information on them. Much of this gap results from the extreme perishability of what women produced, but it seems clear that until now descriptions of prehistoric and early historic cultures have omitted virtually half the picture.
