DEAD GODS HOTLINE ? ISSUE #1: BREAKDOWN

The Gods Never Sleep. They Just Get Put On Hold.

Iris Vale needed a paycheck. What she got was a fluorescent, neon-soaked nightmare.

United Communications Solutions is just another failing call center in a broken-down city?complete with flickering lights, broken vending machines, and coworkers who look like they've seen too much.

But the customers aren't calling about warranties or late payments. They are the Dead Gods?forgotten deities, abandoned spirits, and minor mythic beings who lost their worshippers millennia ago. From the God of Rotting Fruit to the Goddess of Bridges Burnt, these deities call the Hotline with prayers, demands, bargains, and curses, unable to move on until they are heard.

Now, the sardonic, chain-smoking Iris must staff the phones and navigate an impossible set of rules:

• Calls must be answered.
• Gods cannot be hung up on.
• Every request has a catastrophic price. As the corporate supervisor, Thorne, hovers silently in the shadows, Iris quickly realizes this is more than just a dead-end job?it's the only thing keeping the ancient, absurd rage of forgotten divinity from spilling out of the cubicles and consuming the world.

Perfect for fans who like their corporate misery mixed with cosmic dread. Welcome to customer service in the apocalypse.

• The Pune Phantom Fiasco Faizi, known to readers as fAIzi, is a genre-bending author celebrated for blending razor-sharp wit with riveting plots. Whether it's a sentient sapling outsmarting the grim reaper, a malfunctioning toaster hiding state secrets, or a romance erupting in the crossfire between logic and chaos?Faizi's books defy expectations while delivering emotional resonance and laugh-out-loud moments.

Fusing mystery, thriller, crime, romance, and comedy, Faizi has carved a niche for stories that are at once absurdly imaginative and deeply human. Every novel is a cocktail of compelling characters, quirky premises, and intelligent storytelling that keeps readers hooked from the first page to the last twist.

Faizi's work is known for:

• Complex yet lovable characters (often navigating chaos, crimes, or corporate drama)
• Cleverly layered narratives filled with suspense, secrets, and surprises
• A fine balance of humor and heart, where jokes and emotions hit with equal force
• Dialogues that sparkle with wit, making even the darkest plots charmingly readable

• Inventive world-building, where even the mundane becomes extraordinary

When not writing, Faizi is either:

• Overthinking character arcs while stirring tea
• Making spreadsheets of potential plot twists
• People-watching and pretending it's research
• Reading three books at once (one of which is probably about crime, one about love, and one completely absurd) With a background in storytelling, tech satire, and a deeply romantic heart hiding behind sarcastic one-liners, Faizi brings both intellect and emotion to every page.
