Of Myths and Men

What if myths were real? A small-town girl discovers friendly mythological creatures among humans and embarks on a quest to save the world.

Eighteen-year-old Ava has saved the world 152 times — ever since she got her hands on her first console. It's all fun and games, but after a mysterious encounter with not-a-vampire Brad, she discovers that the mythological creatures she's only ever seen in video games are actually totally real. Brad reveals they're alien refugees living among humans — bonus points because Ava finds the guy really, really cute.

As she's suddenly thrust into a quest with a surfer wendigo, a friendly manananggal, a telepathic nine-tailed fox, a Sudoku-loving centaur, and a huggable Bigfoot, Ava embarks on an actual mission to fend off an alien invasion - and she soon realizes that this time, she just might need to save the world for real.

Where's a save point when you need one?
