About this listen

In 1992, at the dawn of the age of technology, disgraced ex-game show host Manny di Martini schemes for a comeback with a deep-sea television special in the South Pacific.

He quickly finds himself in over his head, attracting the attention of a cosmic being who will lead Manny to a television broadcast event much bigger than the entire planet bargained for: evidence of a slumbering alien in a ruined city at the bottom of the ocean. One look at the monster on TV, and humans collectively freak out.

The narrative leaps between a cast of unforgettable characters, revealing their connections to cosmic gods who play with their lives. If humanity can't save itself, and the cosmic beings do not have humanity's best interests in their cold hearts, humanity will have to pull itself together to prepare for a war that not only threatens Earth but the very fabric of reality.

I love how ambitious this novel is. It doesn’t follow a standard story arc and jumps around. But it takes us on a real ride. Thank you guys
