My name is Sumto and I was once content to drink and gamble and idle my days away in the company of good books, dubious friends, and casual women. Still, money and power have their lure and I have accepted I must acquire them as a matter of survival. As the son of a Patron, Sumto has set his feet unsteadily upon a path that will one day allow him to take his place amongst the Assembly of Patrons, the rulers of the city.

The eighth volume of Faith & Fandom emerges from the rubble after the world was on pause. As the world returns to comicons and community, it's time once again for a new volume. Geeky devotional essays on things like Mandalorian, Hamilton, Wandavision, Spider-Man, Ted Lasso, The Hobbit, and much more. Each chapter serves as an individual devotional that uses these subjects as a way to look closer at faith. The books are in no sequential order and can be picked up anywhere in the series depending on individual interests and fandom.

They all seem to care about me more than I probably deserve.

Sumto would rather gather friends, acquire books, learn history, husband a hangover and take his place at the gambling tables. That is not going to be an option for much longer.
