It does seem like the gods are real. The obvious alternative (albeit an un-Wolfean one) is that Latro's head trauma causes him to hallucinate, but enough of the other characters verify his ability in various ways that we can discount this.

Yes, and I believe the the pagan gods in the SOLDIER books are intended to
be literally that, as Wolfe has professed his belief in the existence of
lesser gods like those recorded as inferior rivals of the Old Testament
God.
