Brett, and Neil Gaiman conjures a gritty mind-bending fantasy, set in a world where delusion becomes reality . . . and the fulfillment of humanity's desires may well prove to be its undoing.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen belief defines reality, those with the strongest convictions--the crazy, the obsessive, the delusional--have the power to shape the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd someone is just mad enough to believe he can create a god . . .\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eViolent and dark, the world is filled with the Geisteskranken--men and women whose delusions manifest. Sustained by their own belief--and the beliefs of those around them--they can manipulate their surroundings. For the High Priest Konig, that means creating order out of the chaos in his city-state, leading his believers to focus on one thing: helping a young man, Morgen, ascend to become a god. A god they can control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrouble is, there are many who would see a god in their thrall, including the High Priest's own doppelgangers, a Slaver no one can resist, and three slaves led by possibly the only sane man left.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs these forces converge on the boy, there's one more obstacle: time is running out. Because as the delusions become more powerful, the also become harder to control. The fate of the Geisteskranken is to inevitably find oneself in the Afterdeath. The question, then, is: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWho will rule there?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Voyager\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/16\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780062387035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.30w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/06\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2015 pg. 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRomantic Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2015 pg. 58 - Very Good\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2015 pg. 33\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Michael R.
