Books like God of clocks by Alan Campbell

Alan Campbell’s *God of Clocks* brings a mythic struggle to life, pitting humanity against angels, demons, and a god of time. Rachel Hael, a former assassin, reunites with Mina Greene and returns a dangerous secret when they confront the iron‑bone automatons controlled by King Menoa, Lord of the Maze. Against the backdrop of an unholy portal to Hell, the narrative follows Rachel’s desperate mission to reach the final defensive stronghold of the god of time. Pursued by the twelve arconites and contending with the god Hasp, who is in the grip of a parasite, Rachel faces a perilous choice: sacrifice her life to save the world or watch it unravel. The novel interweaves themes of war, rebellion, and betrayal, culminating in a potential end of all existence as an infant deity composed of broken souls threatens to devour what remains.
