Overview

What would you do if you found out that everything you knew about your life was a lie? What if all the myths and folklore you grew up with-deities pitting good against evil, the avatar whose coming foretells the end of the world-turned out to be reality? What if there really was a boy who could bridge the worlds of gods and humans because he carries the rare biological marker called the god gene ? And what if, one day, you find out that you are that boy? Based on Hindu mythology, its pantheon of deities including Vishnu and Shiva, and the Dashavatara narrative, and inspired by the Underworld series, The God Gene Chronicles is an alternate world where myth and lore lay the foundations of history. A world where gods walk freely on an earth overrun by thugs. A world that waits desperately for the last incarnation of Vishnu to return to earth as the protector. A world about to be changed by a long dormant marker in the blood of a rare few-the god gene, where heaven and earth intersect in the form of a boy who may just be the saviour the world has been waiting for.
