A tale of love and madness. When he confronts the truth, a lovesick god has all of his dreams turned into nightmares. In a moment of passion, a lovesick god willingly fails and breaks the divine law. Desperate to nourish and cultivate his renegade love, he searches for the answers to the questions on his heart. Told that he must go to the darkest place in all creation, and that only there will he gain what he needs in order to succeed, he does not hesitate in beginning his dread adventure. When he later finds himself in such a place, he does indeed achieve the means to win his love forever…although he did not fully understand the cost. In the mortal realm, an unlikely group of would-be heroes find themselves hunted by powers they cannot possibly hope to overcome. Captured and taken to a place where sanity is a commodity, they keep their spirits high by helping those around them as they look for a missing companion. While they are searching, they discover—much to their surprise—that they are in the middle of a secret fight amongst the gods. In the end, love is both triumphant and forsaken in this charming, yet mordant tale of gods and heroes.

"Rest is such a valuable book. If work is our national religion, Pang is the philosopher reintegrating our bifurcated selves."---Arianna Huffington, New York Times Book Review Overwork is the new normal. Rest is something to do when the important things are done—but they are never done. Looking at different forms of rest, from sleep to vacation, Silicon Valley futurist and business consultant Alex Soojung-Kim Pang dispels the myth that the harder we work the better the outcome. He combines rigorous scientific research with a rich array of examples of writers, painters, and thinkers—from Darwin to Stephen King—to challenge our tendency to see work and relaxation as antithetical. "Deliberate rest," as Pang calls it, is the true key to productivity, and will give us more energy, sharper ideas, and a better life. Rest offers a roadmap to rediscovering the importance of rest in our lives, and a convincing argument that we need to relax more if we actually want to get more done.
