Author Thorne Smith puts his seemingly boundless imagination to good work in The Night Life of the Gods, a rip-roaring novel that postulates about what would happen if ancient deities were revived and allowed to run wild in the streets of Depression-era New York City. This turn of events comes about when inventor Hunter Hawk devises a method of turning people into stone statues and vice versa.
