We found No Gods, No Monsters measured and unsettling, using collective voices and restrained speculation to examine power, policing, and what solidarity costs when fear becomes policy.
As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.
No Gods, No Monsters opens with a shock that refuses to stay contained. When Laina’s brother is killed by Boston police, the story first appears to be one of violence and injustice. It soon becomes something far stranger. Monsters are real, and they are no longer hiding.
As beings from myth begin to claim visibility, the world shifts. A werewolf pack is pressured into silence. A grieving academic traces a vanished friend into a covert network operating in the shadows.
A young boy with unusual abilities finds shelter among activists fighting for monster rights, though their cause is far from simple. Across cities and continents, fear grows alongside protest, hatred and sudden disappearance.
This is a fantasy novel rooted firmly in the present, blending the personal with the political. No Gods, No Monsters explores power, identity and belief, asking why the hidden choose to emerge and what happens when the truth can no longer be ignored.
