Innocence is only the first course. The miracle of birth heralds the end of all things. A monster feasts on the most pure. A child is pushed to become a murderer. Bodies transformed beyond recognition. These are the first signs of the end. When an unimaginable horror devours the only things that matter in Carson Chambers's life, he is set on a path of vengeance across a collapsing America. Theo Temple would do anything to protect his sister, and his grisly acts bind him to a world of growing chaos. They are about to discover their suffering is no accident. It is the opening salvo in a war from beyond comprehension, where ancient gods seek to consume everything in their paths. The only way to fight a universe that masticates the very concept of meaning itself is to become the very monsters one fears. A brutal journey through a war zone of an interdimensional scale. A body horror epic where one must choose: Be chewed, or become the chewer. How long can your innocence last?
