The thrilling epic fantasy sequel to No. 1 Sunday Times bestseller, GODKILLER. The godkiller is dying. Having plunged into the sea's depths to save Elo, Inara and Skedi from the fire god Hseth, her only chance of survival is to put her life in the hands of yet another god: Osidisen, god of the sea for whom she is named. But no godkiller wants to be at the mercy of one, and if she lives she will find herself torn between honour and destruction of all the gods she comes across. That includes the little god of white lies, Skedi, to whom Inara is bound. As they search for answers to their bond, Elo takes up the call of rebellion to destroy the man he once called friend, and still calls king. A king who once devoted himself to destroying all gods throughout the land, but has now entered into an unholy pact with the most dangerous of them all. And where once his heart beat, a god now burns.
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

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. . .

Only moments earlier she had been fending off masses of birds in a snow-covered forest.

But when the waking world starts closing in, too — crows stalk her every move around the city; she gets threatening text messages from someone claiming to be Sabrina — Mackenzie knows this is more than she can handle alone.Travelling north to her rural hometown in Alberta, she finds her family still steeped in the same grief that she ran away to Vancouver to escape. They welcome her back, but their shaky reunion only seems to intensify her dreams — and make them more dangerous.What really happened that night at the lake, and what did it have to do with Sabrina’s death? Only a bad Cree would put their family at risk, but what if whatever has been calling Mackenzie home was already inside her?

Ve své cestě za pomstou se Kissen rozhodla stát bohobijkou a loví teď bohy pro zábavu i pro nějakou tu odměnu. Plány se jí však překazí v den, kdy jí cestu zkříží malá Inara s prosbou o pomoc.Její život je totiž spojený s životem bůžka milosrdných lží, Skediho. Bohobijka jí pomůže při útěku před neznámými vrahy a vydává se s ní do Blenradenu, padlého města, kde ještě stále přežívají divocí bohové. Na stejnou pouť se svým vlastním úkolem se vydal i Elogast, pekař a bývalý rytíř. Všichni tři hromadně čelí nástrahám, které se jim postaví do cesty a pevně doufají, že bohové vyslyší jejich prosby. Během své pouti však zjistí, že vše není tak, jak se mohlo zdát – v jejich světě číhá skrytá hrozba a jen oni můžou vše napravit.
