On his way to an interview with a national newspaper, jobless journalist, Dillon Wright is assailed by armoured knights tearing up the motorway with a mechanical digger. Dillon is not impressed by their claim to be on a sacred quest, but the newspaper is seeking a fearless reporter to investigate cults and unothodox religions. His recent near-death experience is just what they are looking for.
Aided and abetted by his accident-prone housemate, Sparks, and his sceptical girlfriend, Charlotte, he sets out on his own quest, in search of truth and regular employment. On the way, he meets a Gnostic sect who own a brewery, a convent of hostile nuns, and a cult whose non-stop party lifestyle is hard to resist.
Dillon suspects he has been tricked into undertaking an increasingly hazardous mission, but every choice he makes drags him deeper into danger. When his investigations antagonise a volatile religious militia, his home is burnt to the ground and he is forced to go on the run.
Can he escape his perilous fate? Will this company of quirky cultists help him prevent an apocalypse? Or is he just their perfect fool?
