The God and the Flightless Messenger
Regular price
$14.99
A messenger's duty is to care for and protect the god they've been assigned to. In order to complete these tasks, such messengers require wings.
Shin, however, can't fly. His tiny, useless wings make him the target of ridicule and scorn among the other messengers and have kept him from being able to serve a god... until now. Determined to prove himself as a capable messenger despite his flightlessness, Shin accepts his assignment to a mysterious being on one of the nearby mountains. At first, it seems an easy task to keep his charge safe and happy — especially when the deity in question is just a cute, fluffy ball of fur. But things aren't always what they seem.
Recently, messengers flying over the strange god's mountain have been disappearing. Even as suspicion mounts against his deity, Shin just can't bring himself to think that such a gentle god could have a dark side. It's strange, but for some reason... the mysterious, fluffy being feels so familiar to him. manga;comic;graphic novel;yaoi;boys love;bl;japanese;gay;lgbt;yaoi manga english;yaoi bl manga;yaoi manga;yoai;yoai manga;yaoi anime manga;anime;boy love;boy love manga;boys love manga;japanese bl;bl japanese;manga books;manga anime;manga bl;manga yaoi;bl manga;manga boys love;manga ebook;manga english;manga kindle;manga lgbt;manga lgbtq;lgbtq;manga love;manga paperback;manga romance;love x love;love love;tokyopop;the god and the flightless messenger;god and flightless messenger;flightless messenger;hagi
