Wake: The Broken Pantheon Trilogy: Book One (Present Tense Gods 1)

The gods didn't die. They just got better at hiding. Dr. Elara Voss thought she understood consciousness—until she started hearing the thoughts of everyone around her. Not telepathy. Something older. Something that remembers when humans were prey and gods walked openly among mortals. Now she's caught between a tech billionaire who wants to monetize divine power, a street preacher who might actually be what he claims, and her own growing certainty that she's not losing her mind—she's remembering what she used to be. In a world where ancient deities wear human skin and Silicon Valley wants to hack enlightenment, one woman's awakening could save humanity... or end it.
