Telel has witnessed the rise and fall of empires, the destruction of 168 worlds, and the quiet ways humans fill the voids that gods leave behind. He’s seen it all before—the pattern never changes. But this time, something is different. Celestials are bleeding. A cosmic threat is stirring beyond the Void. And in a small prison in Mondansk, ordinary people are doing extraordinary things with nothing but scraps and stubborn refusal to break.

Twenty years later, the survivors gather for a reunion.

Some have become warriors. Some have found redemption. Some have spent two decades preparing vengeance as carefully as Bubbe once prepared her legendary broth.

The menu: Mondansk Soup. The occasion: a reckoning.

From the space between breath and prayer, where angels take notes and humans do the actual work of saving the world—a story of survival, cosmic mythology, and the surprising power of what we choose to fill the emptiness.

For readers who believe the sacred and the profane share the same kitchen, and that sometimes salvation is just good timing, the right ingredients, and refusing to let cruelty have the last word.

“Ambitious, devastating, and oddly hopeful—like The Book of Revelation crashed into a prison break and they all sat down for dinner.”

Contains: theological wrestling, prison noir, angels with opinions, revenge served cold, and soup recipes that may or may not stop coups.
