About Deus Ex
Many men dream of becoming gods. Magnus Antonius Magnus achieved this dream, conquering half the globe and ruling it with an iron fist. Now, however, he is learning a painful lesson: gods, like men, can go too far. They can blunder. They can even fall. But does the story of Magnus end with the destruction of his empire…or is that where it begins?
Praise for Deus Ex
Miles Watson always surprises, never disappoints. He is an author who cannot be seduced by the easy answers, and never lets his reader off the hook. This brief novella is a timely exploration of the psychology of power and the humanity of the tyrant.
Power has a price. Absolute power costs everything.
Set in a possible future or an alternative present, it shows us the dying days of the most powerful empire even known… any empire, any dictatorship, it doesn’t matter. Out of a believable, gripping story, whose characters are each unique and perfectly realised in flesh and blood, Miles Watson draws out the thread of universal dilemmas, universal nightmares. Most chillingly, he pulled me into the mind of the tyrant, made me see the world through those eyes. The ending offers no easy resolutions. There are none: the end of history is not quite in sight.
