Long ago, the wrath of the three God brothers marked the onset of the Great War. The other Gods watched in horror, until they, too, were forced to take sides. Their beloved Mt Olympus collapsed, ruin was brought to all Divine, and the Age of Darkness gripped the world in its clutches. But a group of Gods was wise, and before their impending deaths, they had crafted a pact, committing to one day rebuilding the Territories – the Heavens, Seas, and the Underworld. It would usher in the world they protected and honored out from its darkness. And from it would rise the new Greats: the Sons of Gods.
Cienzo has always had an affliction for metal and fire; never did he anticipate it would one day translate to wielding dormant powers. It is during a journey to fulfill a promise to his dying sister, that he is plunged into a dark and magical world, and where great responsibility is bestowed upon him.
Is he worthy of assuming the throne of the Territories? Can shattering steel and splitting fire change his mind?
Top 10 Favorite Gods and why
Hades, God of Underworld.
Reason: Always loved Hades. Lived in a palace below the world, surrounded by wealth and minerals.
Hypnos, God of Sleep. Something ethereal about it.
Reason: I am a self-professed napper. But also, can you imagine making anyone you want fall asleep at the snap of a finger?
Morpheus, God of Dreams.
Reason: I would wake up in the BEST mood every morning.
Hermes, Messenger to Gods, God of Trade and Thieves.
Reason: I imagine him having the best gossip on all the Gods and Goddesses. He’d probably be a character on the Real Housewives of Mt Olympus.
Aphrodite, Goddess of Beauty.
Reason: In today’s age, she’s be the most followed person on Instagram.
Zeus, Kind of Gods, God of the Sky.
Reason: I like rainy days. Also, he’s the boss. It’s a win/win.
Dionysus, God of Wine & Ritual Madness.
Reason: Can you imagine the parties he threw?
Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt
Reason: Her connection to the moon has always been so beautiful and profound to be.
Asclepius God of Medicine.
Reason: Able to cure any disease. The ability to understand and help those in need. A beautiful God indeed,
Eros, God of Love and Sexual Desire.
Reason: God of Love. So deep into layers I can go here. But what a poetic, intimate God with such big responsibilities. Author Bio:

ReplyDeleteThis is an imaginative and fun story to get into. If you love Greek mythology or myths in general I definitely recommend. Gonzalez did a great job introducing us to his world. I do wish for more building of the world overall, but this is a great start and I look forward to more books in the future.
ReplyDeleteThey can guide you through them even with their eyes closed and they know all the local tales and folklore too. Remember that when you're travelling, you should not only enjoy the experience physically. Best Beer Tours
