A review by booksnorkel
City of the Plague God by Sarwat Chadda

5.0

Geared for an older audience this riordan presents brings us the mythologies of Mesopotamia. The epic of gilgamesh is the original hero story. And now we have Sik in modern New York. He's helping his parents run their deli and dealing with the loss of his beloved older brother. Until demons show up and a place starts Sil is expected to fight Nergal from the stories.

Darker and more visceral Chadda gives us a story that takes us on adventure. For 13 on up I can't wait for the next book in the series.
