They mistook bondage for freedom. They confused horror for beauty. They worshipped a madman as God. Now they will pay the ultimate price.

Doctor Milo Flowers, now known as the New God, advances in his quest to infect a desperate world. As his influence grows and his religion spreads, his loyal followers – the Blossoms of the New God – move quickly to convert the masses and eliminate those who deny the truth of their chosen messiah.

As miracles of healing continue to take place at the Flowers Institute and its satellite Petals, the world falls increasingly under the spell of the New God, even as whispers of terrifying transformations echo across the land.

With the world prostrating itself before a false savior, a sinister plan unfolds right under the noses of the blind faithful. And when the New God's trap is finally sprung, those who accepted his healing touch will realize that instead of receiving salvation, they surrendered something much more precious – their humanity.

Racing against time, Wakened humans Marlin Hadder and Viktor Krill form an unlikely partnership as they embark on a perilous journey to stop a familiar foe. Battling through twisted monstrosities and an elite force of Blossom savages, Hadder and Krill learn the dark truth about Doctor Flowers and his wicked designs. Aligning themselves with a band of resistance fighters and joined by some old friends, Hadder and Krill must confront the New God on his island fortress, home to a new breed of deadly nightmares.

With judgment from the cosmos approaching, the Wakened humans are faced with dire questions as the final battle threatens. Can a ragtag army defeat a self-made god? Is humanity's fate already sealed? And how is the mystery of Albany Rott's Station related to this lurking apocalypse?
