Review:
James Lovegrove's previous five bestselling novels in the Pantheon series can be described as militaristic thrillers in which the overweening gods are brought to book by the secular forces of a well-armed humanity. Age of Godpunk (Solaris, £7.99) is a change of gear, comprising three novellas that focus on individuals whose lives are transformed by their interaction with deities and devils. In 'Age of Anansi', self-satisfied barrister Dion Yeboah finds himself taken over by the African trickster spider-god Anansi and forced to participate in a contest between a pantheon of pranking deities, while in 'Age of Gaia', a sadistic billionaire tycoon comes a cropper when he finds himself attempting to subdue the Earth goddess Gaia in the form of eco-journalist Lydia Laidlaw. Best of all is 'Age of Satan' a tongue-in-cheek homage to and send-up of the oeuvre of Dennis Wheatley, and a sensitive account of one man's fear of satanic possession and how he uses satanism to change the world for the better. --The Guardian
