What if the ER gods were real—and just as dysfunctional as hospital administration?
GODS OF THE ER, a 15,000-word darkly comedic fantasy that blends the bureaucratic satire of Good Omens with the medical authenticity of The House of God. It will appeal to those who love Neil Gaiman's flawed deities, Terry Pratchett's sharp social commentary, and the gallows humor of anyone who's ever worked a night shift.
Gabriel is a young god overseeing seven American emergency rooms, and he's terrible at his job. He stages dramatic rescues for social media clout while his mortal staff develop PTSD at three times the normal rate. The Supreme Court of gods loves him—because suffering generates virtue, and Gabriel generates spectacular suffering.
But Chrona, the Court's administrative assistant, (Mariline) has been watching for centuries. She's seen mortal nurses rewrite hospital protocols during the Crimean War, watched the Paris Commune run a hospital without administrators, and documented what happens when humans stop waiting for divine intervention. When she discovers that a corrupt mortal leader is the Court's "best performer"—precisely because his cruelty forces humans to save each other—she realizes the system isn't broken. It's working exactly as designed.
