Deep in the research wing of the Natural History Museum is a prize specimen, something that comes along much less often than once in a lifetime: a perfect, and perfectly preserved, giant squid. But what does it mean when the creature suddenly and impossibly disappears? For curator Billy Harrow it's the start of a headlong pitch into a London of warring cults, surreal magic, apostates and assassins. It might just be that the creature he's been preserving is more than a biological rarity: there are those who are sure it's a god. A god that someone is hoping will end the world.

Bra historia, men jag tappade lätt bort mig bland namn och olika fantastiska inslag. Jag tyckte att boken ofta blev rörig, men den var också rolig och fantasifull så helhetsintrycket är bra.
