AS IF THE OLD ONES WEREN'T ENOUGH OF A THREAT... In the far future, in the crime-ridden city its citizens call Punktown, dangerous cults work to summon the monstrous Old Ones from their long sleep. In an effort to better understand these alien gods, a rogue scientist has been working on a computer-generated model of a composite being that he calls Yogthutu. However, Yogthutu has been taking on a life of its own. As the researcher's experiments go dangerously awry, a number of his friends-led by a conscience-stricken gangster named Colin Rex-rush against time to find the researcher's lab, shut down his experiments, and stop Yogthutu before the New God brings about the destruction of the entire city. A thrilling blend of Lovecraftian horror and science fiction, The New God is the latest installment in Jeffrey Thomas' popular Punktown series.
