Resumen del Editor

INSTANT #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

“An epic fantasy odyssey begins.” — Entertainment Weekly

"A richly rendered world . . . Kaner writes action that's both fun and intelligible . . . If "The Last of Us" didn't slake your thirst for stories of a grizzled fighter taking a tough kid on the road, then Godkiller should be your jam.” — Charlie Jane Anders, The Washington Post

Enter a land of gods and monsters, soldiers and mercenaries, secrets and wishes—the explosive #1 internationally bestselling fantasy debut in a new trilogy for fans of The Witcher and Gideon the Ninth

Gods are forbidden in the kingdom of Middren. Formed by human desires and fed by their worship, there are countless gods in the world—but after a great war, the new king outlawed them and now pays “godkillers” to destroy any who try to rise from the shadows.

As a child, Kissen saw her family murdered by a fire god. Now, she makes a living killing them and enjoys it. But all this changes when Kissen is tasked with helping a young noble girl with a god problem. The child’s soul is bonded to a tiny god of white lies, and Kissen can’t kill it without ending the girl’s life too.

Joined by a disillusioned knight on a secret quest, the unlikely group must travel to the ruined city of Blenraden, where the last of the wild gods reside, to each beg a favor. Pursued by assassins and demons, and in the midst of burgeoning civil war, they will all face a reckoning. Something is rotting at the heart of their world, and they are the only ones who can stop it.

Godkiller will have you in its grasp from the first pages. . . An extraordinary journey.” — Samantha Shannon, New York Times bestselling author of The Priory of the Orange Tree

"Beautifully imagined and intensely felt . . . Godkiller is a bone-rattling fantasy thriller that flies by in a breathtaking rush." — Joe Hill, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Locke & Key

"Epic and intimate, tender and sharp, Godkiller is a triumph of storytelling." — Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author of For the Wolf

Dear Listener,

What most intrigued me about the idea of a "godkiller" and the world of Middren?
"The world of Godkiller is set around a sea where multiple different lands have routes of passage, trade, and communication. As they do in our world, there stories of gods travel with silk and spices; however, in Middren, all gods manifest as real, talkative, and fallible beings. The story itself is set after some gods take their power to an extreme, igniting a war between themselves and humans (similar to the fall of Troy, with gods on both sides making playthings of people) that causes a great city to fall and sends multiple lands into disarra.
What would it be like if gods came to life? What would it mean if faith could be used not only to support and love others but also to coerce and blame? These were concepts I was fascinated to explore, particularly while thinking about the capriciousness of gods in Greek, Norse, and Celtic mythology. Additionally, I wanted to create a character who could—and would—hold these gods to account. Someone irreverent, powerful, pragmatic, and independent. Someone who has such faith in herself that she doesn’t put it in anything else, which is her strength as well as her frailty. That’s where the idea of a "godkiller" came into being."- Hannah Kaner, writer of Godkiller

If you like The Witcher series, you'll love this!

I have to admit, I was hooked with the first chapter. This is such an amazing story and if you enjoy The Witcher book series, this book has similar vibes, but with a female MC a d Gods instead of monsters. I have to admit, over halfway through, I wasn't as entertained, and actually put this book down several times, but I am SO glad I picked it back up and carried on because I can now say, this is officially, one of my FAVORITE books of all time. What an ending!!! I am counting down the days to Sunbringer, which I have already pre-ordered. 5 stars ***** This book is BRILLIANT!! (And 5 stars to the Narrator as well, absolutely perfect narration.)

Series Potential

I enjoyed this book. The character build is sound. The performer has a impactful voice that works well with the story. Has the potential to be a good series.
