Bloomsbury presents It's Not a Cult, written and read by Joey Batey.

Which poses the question: if the Solkats really do exist, which is it more dangerous to anger: a wayward group of elder gods, or your biggest fans? Because gods and cults both demand sacrifices. And one way or another they're going to get one…
