God of Ashes

In a world buried beneath the ashes of dead gods, survival is the only law.

Kane Walker is a god-hunter. He makes his living tracking down the colossal remains of the Old Gods that litter the wasteland and the Sea of Ashes, extracting their residual power, and selling it to the highest bidder. It is brutal, lonely work—and it has left him with a secret: the ashes of the gods he has consumed now live within him, a churning dead sea of borrowed power that threatens to consume him in turn.

His life changes forever when he plucks a silver-haired, purple-eyed girl from the surface of the Sea of Ashes. She has no memories, no name, and no past. She is not human. She is a divine being—a living relic of a fallen age—and the fanatical Brotherhood of Evolution will stop at nothing to possess her.

Kane names her Lina and raises her as his own, teaching her to survive in the rotting city of Blackiron. But Lina carries a power within her that cannot be hidden forever. When the Brotherhood unleashes a catastrophic ritual to tear open a gateway for their "Great Will," Lina's true identity begins to surface. She is the living backup of Sophia, the slain God of Knowledge—the key to resurrecting a new, terrifying god, or to stopping it forever.

Hunted by relentless Emissaries and haunted by the fragments of a dead goddess's memories, Kane and Lina embark on a desperate journey across the ashen seas and frozen northern wastes. Their only hope lies in finding the sunken City of Song—the heart of the Eternal Library—where the truth of Lina's origin and the weakness of the Great Will are buried.

But Kane is running out of time. The divine hatred he has sealed within his own body is growing stronger, and the only way to stop it may cost him everything.

God of Ashes is a sweeping action fantasy of sacrifice and redemption, where the line between monster and protector blurs, and the deepest bonds are forged not in peace, but in the fire of desperate, unwavering love.
