As Janie Tenner—embattled survivor of the planet's dwindling female population—learns the grim truths at the heart of the Divinity Cult's mission, she plots her escape...but finds little solidarity with her fellow captives. Worse yet, when Janie meets a charismatic man of God called Samuel—divinely inspired to end the female drought, by any means necessary—she learns that salvation requires sacrifice, and that fate plays dirty. Acclaimed novelist Joe Hart (The Last Girl) brings the engrossing dystopian paranoia of his popular Dominion series to the comics page in collaboration with award-winning comic book writer Stuart Moore (The Zodiac Legacy) and celebrated illustrator Michael Montenat (Clive Barker's Hellraiser).
Joe Hart is the Edgar Award-winning and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of seventeen novels including The River Is Dark, Obscura, The Last Girl, and Or Else. His work has been optioned for film and translated into eight languages. He lives with his family in Minnesota.
