The Coming of God of Death

Gauss, the God of Death, led a quiet existence ruling the underworld — until a vengeful goddess and her angels destroyed everything he'd built and nearly killed him. Now he's back, but his only candidate for a new body is a sick child on the verge of death.

The world has changed significantly while Gauss rested in oblivion. Now the God of Death must make money to pay off debts. At least he has his zombies — they don't need to be paid.

Zombie workers are the perfect employees: they don't rest, don't eat, and don't complain. Business is booming. But karma has a way of balancing the books, and problems are raining down on Gauss faster than he ever expected.

A deserted island. Freezing cold and inadequate magic. Karma and Fate have cooked up plenty of adventures for Gauss — new minions, new powers, and of course, new problems. Because when has he ever been without those?

Gauss reveals a portion of his true power to the world by summoning a divine avatar — though no one knows it's an avatar. His enemies remain fools who keep underestimating him, even as a great healer mage named Alex Scully makes an unexpected appearance.

Fish nearly bite off something important, Reyna's church grows ever more troublesome, and Gauss presses on. Where others give up, the God of Death finds opportunity and grows stronger.

A dangerous beauty with hair to the floor and nails like daggers causes Gauss to curse the prince who brought her into his life. Then the heavens start cracking — it's an invasion.

The Ming Empire — a great ancient power almost wiped out by bloodthirsty hordes — holds new mysteries. A new god has emerged, and he's a right evil bastard. Gauss must confront him whether he cares to or not.
