Return to the world of Godkiller in this thrilling sequel to the #1 internationally bestselling fantasy debut
When Middren falls to the gods, your kind will be the first to die.
Gods are forbidden in the kingdom of Middren—but now they are stirring, whispering of war. Godkiller Kissen sacrificed herself to vanquish the fire god Hseth, who murdered her family and endangered her friends. But gods cannot be destroyed so easily, and Hseth’s power threatens to reform with even greater strength and a thirst for vengeance. As tensions rise throughout the land, the kingdom needs its Godkiller more than ever.
Still reeling from the loss of Kissen, young noble Inara and her little god of white lies, Skedi, have set out to discover more about the true nature of their bond. As the divide between gods and humans widens, Inara and Skedi will uncover secrets that could determine the fate of the war to come.
Meanwhile, Elogast, no longer a loyal knight of King Arren, has been tasked with killing the man he once called friend. The king vowed to eradicate all gods throughout the land, but has now entered into an unholy pact with the most dangerous of them all. And where his heart once beat, a god now burns. . .

Editor's Note
Epic world-building…
In the immediate aftermath of Kaner’s “Godkiller,” the animosity between humans and gods continues. Our band of protagonists face ever-greater challenges and reckon with the loss of Godkiller Kissen, who died heroically — or so her friends think. Inara and her god-companion Skedi search for answers about their hazy pasts, while knight-baker Elo faces a seemingly impossible choice. Epic world-building and complex character growth abound in this continuation of the “Fallen Gods” fantasy thriller series, which deserves additional accolades for fantastic representation.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent sequel! I must admit once I realized the conflicting agendas of our protagonists....I nearly chose not to finish the book for fear of them coming to a head and harming each other. But the coming to a head was skillfully done without major loss and that's MY KINDA BOOK lol I will probably read both books again!
