Food of the Gods (Rupert Wong Series)
Paying off a debt to the gods is never easy. It's not unusual to work two jobs in this day and age, but sorcerer and former triad soldier Rupert Wong's life is more complicated than most. By day, he makes human hors d'oeuvres for a dynasty of ghouls; by night, he pushes pencils for the Ten Chinese Hells. Of course, it never seems to be enough to buy him a new car-or his restless, flesh-eating-ghost girlfriend passage from the reincarnation cycle-until opportunity comes smashing through his window. In Kuala Lumpur, where deities from a handful of major faiths tip-toe around each other and damned souls number in the millions, it's important to tread carefully. Now the Dragon King of the South wants to throw Rupert right in it. The ocean god's daughter and her once-mortal husband have been murdered, leaving a single clue: bloodied feathers from the Greek furies. It's a clue that could start a war between pantheons, and Rupert's stuck in the middle. Success promises wealth, power and freedom, and failure... doesn't. This volume collects the stories Rupert Wong: Cannibal Chef and Rupert Wong And the Ends of the Earth.

Editorial Reviews

The New York Times Book Review - N. K. Jemisin

…madcap, macabre and violently funny…For the most part Rupert's voice works; he's explicitly talking to the presumed reader…and the constant breaking of the fourth wall enhances a mythic feel for this otherwise gritty tale. The more creative descriptions of gore, and the special guest appearance of one pantheon in particular, pull the tale somewhere into the interstitial space between urban fantasy and horror, but brave readers will be richly rewarded if they choose to follow.
