If Ella didn't have her baby, she'd go crazy from the loneliness. But she might still go crazy from the guilt, because the baby isn't quite right. The world was simpler before the righteous floated away into the sky, and magic started working. A stand-alone story continuing on from acclaimed graphic novel Therefore Repent! , Sword of My Mouth moves the focus from Chicago, under siege by angels with machine guns, to the urban prairie of Detroit, where a different kind of struggle is faced. Folks in the D have banded together to turn land with burned-out crack houses into farming tracts, and seem to be on a road to self-sufficiency...until Famine rides into town.
