comment
The World of M is an Urban Fantasy novel by Stevie Barry. It’s the fourth book in The M Universe. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The War of M was seemingly won, but at a terrible cost. With millions dead, and the Northern Hemisphere a wasteland, rebuilding will take decades.What most people don't know is that the war isn’t over. Thorvald might be dead, but the creature that created him remains alive and well..and it’s determined to cross the gap between the Void and Earth. Earth, however, is not the only dimension it threatens, and humanity has gained itself some rather strange allies. Airships from another world bring plenty of backup(and with them, hope), while ancient gods wake out of millennia-long naps.

Only Sane Man: Azarael certainly feels like he is. A lot of his fellow deities regard him more like a downplayed Eeyore, given how pessimistic he naturally is.

 The World Of M / int_6439de78
comment
Heroic Sacrifice: Von Rached, of all people. Lorna is doomed to die (she has something she needs to do in the afterlife), but he can resurrect her if he dies himself. Helps that he actually wants to die, though he makes sure he does it in a suitably appropriate way for someone with his ego.

There Is No Kill Like Over Kill: Let's see, we've got: the strongest Gifted on the planet; the old gods who've slept for over a thousand years; all three deities from the Other, one of whom is Death (and their support staff); an army of two million zombies, and oh yeah, the Memories, and they're all set against the Angel and its minions.

Handicapped Badass: Poor Lorna might have had her leg and her shoulder healed, but nothing can be done about her eye or the Memory-wounds on her back. Jary tells her that while the eye will hopefully improve with time, she'll never have proper vision from it again. This doesn't stop her taking part in the big battle in the North Pole.
