Thirteen-year-old Sikander Aziz’s life is pretty normal until the ancient Mesopotamian god of plagues, Nergal, decides to pay his family's deli a visit. Turns out, Sik is an immortal, and he’s the only one who can stop a literal plague from wiping out all of Manhattan.

Joined by Belet, the fierce adopted daughter of the goddess Ishtar, and a legendary (if slightly washed-up) hero named Gilgamesh, Sik must embark on a high-stakes quest to find a magical flower that grants eternal life. This humor-filled, action-packed adventure brings ancient mythology to the streets of modern-day New York City.
