"Meet Mortimer Crane: a dead man who just won't stay that way."
Reality is broken. Time is a tangled mess. Heaven and Hell are at a bureaucratic standstill. And somehow, in the middle of it all, stands Mortimer - a resurrected glitch with a synthetic body, a questionable moral compass, and a dog who may or may not be the only sane being left in existence. As Mortimer stumbles through a world unraveling at the seams, he's hunted by shadowy monsters, worshiped by a cult he never asked for, and pursued by celestial beings who can't decide whether to erase him or offer him a job. Guided by a billionaire chaos enthusiast, a band of misfits, and the unwavering loyalty of his dog, Mortimer sets off on an absurd, existential, and utterly unhinged journey to find God himself... and demand an explanation. Along the way, he'll face cosmic horrors, existential crises, a divine clerical error that started it all, and an apocalyptic war between Heaven, Hell, and sentient spaghetti. Because, of course, nothing can ever be simple. Wildly absurd, unexpectedly heartfelt, and packed with razor-sharp wit, this is a story about life, death, and the ridiculous mess in between.
