Quinn

The gods have problems. Unfortunately, Quinn is one of them.

The world is a strange enough place without discovering that the gods of ancient mythology are real, still interfering in human affairs, and apparently haven't learned a bloody thing in several thousand years.

Unfortunately for Quinn, that's precisely the sort of world he inhabits.

Quinn isn't your traditional hero. He's not particularly interested in destiny, divine politics or becoming anyone's chosen champion. He'd much rather have a quiet life, a little peace, and perhaps an entire week in which nobody attempts to kill him, manipulate him or drag him into another supernatural catastrophe.

The universe, naturally, has other ideas.

Across the series, Quinn finds himself tangled in mysteries where ordinary human motives collide with extraordinary powers. Ancient rivalries refuse to stay ancient, divine personalities bring their considerable emotional baggage into the modern world, and the distinction between hero and villain becomes increasingly difficult to maintain.

There are murders to unravel, secrets to uncover, loyalties to question and gods who seem to believe that being immortal excuses them from behaving like responsible adults. It doesn't. Nobody has had the courage to tell them.

But beneath the supernatural chaos lies something considerably more human.

Quinn's greatest challenges aren't always the monsters, the mysteries or the beings who can rewrite the rules of reality. They're the uncomfortable truths he discovers about himself, the consequences of his decisions, and the relationships that force him to confront the parts of his own nature he'd prefer to ignore.

Blending supernatural crime, mythology, mystery and irreverent humour, the Quinn series follows a reluctant hero through a world where the impossible is often the least surprising part of the investigation.

Because sometimes the hardest thing about dealing with gods is discovering just how human they really are.
