| Summary |
Jane's young. She's broke. Oh, and she just discovered she has supernatural powers so bizarre they may end up killing her. Since she read a biography of Catholic saints and began spontaneously healing the sick and calling down lightning, Jane's day-to-day has become a trippy journey of self-discovery. Lucky thing a pair of magical special agents appear and offer to train her, because it turns out that not only has Jane's life taken a hard turn for the weird, but the fabric of reality is beginning to unravel. Urban legends like Mothman, the Jersey Devil, and Bunnyman are manifesting in a sleepy Pennsylvania town, and they are haaangry. The good news: Jane's new boyfriend is part of an ancient corporation of literary superheroes ready to save the world. The bad news: life expectancy for people with powers kind of sucks. If Jane wants to live long enough to see the year 2000, she'll have to work with her new mentor, a teenaged, angsty King Arthur; her current crush, cuddly god-man Enkidu; and a gun-nun from a neighboring comba-convent to seize her role as a try-hard hero and stop a middle-aged madwoman from ripping a hole in the multiverse. Indie Saint is an urban fantasy adventure with a dose of Sumerian, Arthurian, and modern mythologies, and a dash of romance. Fans of Quentin Tarantino, Tamsyn Muir, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer will enjoy the cheeky writing, toasty romance, and technicolor brawls. "The story is punchy but smart…This is a fantasy novel with an attitude and I look forward to seeing that unique character expand throughout the series…VK Fox's writing is mesmerizing…Indie Saint is a riotously fun book with an intriguing cast of characters facing an imaginative supernatural world that is only hinting at a deeper backstory." |
