The world turned upside down in 1929, starting in the United States. As the Great Depression shook the nation, so-called "gods" began to appear along Route 66, and quickly grew in number. With humankind slowly dying out, history then took a different course... This is the story "of gods and men," set in the year 2047.

America has entered the war, throwing its weight against the Axis powers. And the gods have joined ranks with them. The Snow Queen and the Dancer are sent on a recon mission in Bavaria, at the site of the last castle built by Louis II. The area is strangely devoid of military activity, and its their job to figure out why. Little do they know that the secret they uncover could change the face of the war—whether it's at the hands of the Nazis on the decline, or the Soviets on the horizon.
