You are not welcome here, godkiller
Kissen’s family were killed by zealots of a fire god. Now, she makes a living killing gods, and enjoys it. That is until she finds a god she cannot kill: Skedi, a god of white lies, has somehow bound himself to a young noble, and they are both on the run from unknown assassins.
Joined by a disillusioned knight on a secret quest, they must travel to the ruined city of Blenraden, where the last of the wild gods reside, to each beg a favour.
Pursued by 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 only they can be the ones to stop it.

- The story was good, I love a good quest & the character’s are likeable and interchanged to each POV.

The narration could be better, it sounds like AI reading it instead of a person. I listened on 1.4 speed.Book★5

- Habe das Buch gelesen und fand die Geschichte großartig, erfrischend wenig Klischees und eine wenig vorhersehbare Geschichte. Hat mir sehr gut gefallen.

- **Book Review: "Godkiller" by Hannah Kaner**
Sam
Hannah Kaner's debut novel, "Godkiller," is a mesmerizing blend of mythology, magic, and human complexity. The story follows Kissen, a determined protagonist on a mission to hunt down malevolent deities. Kaner crafts Kissen and her companions with depth and rich backstories, making their journeys relatable and engaging.
The world-building is spectacular, with a gritty, fantastical realm filled with intricate mythology. Kaner's lyrical prose and vivid descriptions bring this world to life, while the action scenes are intense and realistic.
Beyond the captivating plot, "Godkiller" delves into themes of power, sacrifice, and redemption, exploring moral ambiguities and the cost of vengeance. This adds a philosophical depth to the narrative, making it more than just a fantasy tale.
"Godkiller" is a remarkable debut that positions Hannah Kaner as a rising star in fantasy literature. Fans of epic fantasy will be enthralled and eager for her nexBook★5
