Fantasy Epic
When a madman seizes the throne, the gods on Olympus fall silent, and the island of Helinthia descends into decay.
Dargos believes these events are intertwined and persuades Kelric and Gadnor to join him in a rebellion against the tyrant king. They aim to win the gods' favor and restore prosperity to their blighted land.
With unwavering determination, they embark on a quest to rally support for the war, leaving Dargos' sister, Gonivein, safe within Shallinath. But the king's spies, ever vigilant, lurk in the shadows, ready to strike and punish the rebels for their treasonous ideas. As they journey, turmoil meets them at every turn, and a chilling truth dawns: not all the gods desire Helinthia's recovery. Some are determined to plunge the island further into chaos. When hope seems lost, a mysterious figure emerges, harboring a dark secret that could bring peace to Helinthia—but at what cost?.
Fans of Madeline Miller's Circe and Jennifer Saint's Ariadne will delight in this epic fantasy, transported to a vivid world of myth and majesty, danger and deception. Experience the wrath of both gods and men in a narrative imbued with the essence of Homer's Iliad. MJ Pankey's gods, goddesses, heroes, and heroines come alive in their flawed complexities, delivering a riveting, page-turning tale that keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.
