Who will feed the gods?The question was posed by an old hermit back in 1972, just before he hung himself from a meat pole.He’d scrawled those words on a scrap of canvas in what appeared to be his own blood, then nailed it to the wall of his cabin before ending his life.Hard Case Calis had found it when he was dispatched to the Moose Jaw to investigate the death.Now, Hard Case knows the answer to that question.His two best friends, Gus and Haywood know it too.So does Morgan, but she probably always knew.There is nothing about the Moose Jaw country she does not know — she is the Moose Jaw country.
It’s now October, 2000 and Doctor Quinten LaGrange isn’t aware anyone has ever asked such an inane question.He has no time for philosophical nonsense.He has developed an engine powered by the Northern Lights, and he must flee to Alaska to put it to the final test.He realizes there are powerful forces working to stop him, but he is determined to succeed. The gods never enter his mind. When he hijacks Haywood Jennings and his bush plane, the hapless doctor has no idea they have already determined his fate. Haywood leaves a cryptic note for Gus and Hard Case that leads them up into the headwaters of the Moose Jaw. There, they find Haywood’s wrecked airplane, but there are no bodies inside.
An old one-eyed shaman leads them to an ancient Druidic temple, where they discover La Grange’s experimental engine, as well as charred human remains on a stone altar. Food for the gods? Their continued efforts to locate Haywood become dangerous when they encounter Inga, a beautiful Latvian seductress, her team of Eastern bloc mercenaries, and two of LaGrange’s erstwhile colleagues who will stop at nothing, even murder, to recover his engine. Then, of course, there is Trilogy, a gigantic three-toed grizzly, and brutal master of the Moose Jaw country.Having crossed Gus’ trail and recognized his scent, the bear begins stalking his old adversary, bent on revenge.And, let us not forget those hungry gods.One must not offend the gods.
One must not offend the lovely Morgan either. When Lindsay, one of LaGrange’s ruthless pursuers turns up at the Varmitage seeking the doctor’s engine, he forgets his manners.Ah, Lindsay, hadn’t you heard?”Hell hath no furry…”

Cynric, King of Demelza, is haunted by his past. In an effort to escape it, he wields a powerful sword, commanding his dragon lizards and a malevolent thylacine, to wreak havoc throughout the realm. Villages are burning and innocent creatures are dying.
Erik and Emma, two young marsupials, and Devon, an orphaned red fox, are on their own personal quests; two to save a life, one to destroy another. When their paths cross, these natural enemies forge an unusual friendship. Soon they hear of the devastation caused by the evil king and they realize that their personal objectives must be put aside. Even though that decision will affect their own lives, and the lives of the ones they love, they are determined to help their fellow creatures. They put themselves at risk by joining a motley crew of animals, whose main objective is to end the reign of King Cynric.
