Kayl is a godless heathen determined to help others like her adopted mother. With her group of Godless, they fight in every way they can to try and save as many souls as possible while fighting corruption at almost every step of the way.
Quen on the other hand is devoted to his God and has a direct link to him through the visions he’s given. Between the visions and his unique ability, he’s tasked with hunting down murderers and the Godless. And yet, he still seems to care very much for all the citizens of Chime and does his best to try and help others when he can.
Kayl is determined to end the Workhouses that enslave her people, along with the help of the other Godless. However, an accident happens and she discovers powers she’d never known she had and triggers the start of a manhunt against her.
When Quen is brought in, he’s determined to get to the bottom of what really happened, even if it goes against his Ambassador’s wishes. Instead, he works with Kayl to discover what her powers are and how she has them. All while continuing to pursue the Workhouses and Godless.
I absolutely loved this!
It has such a great mix of magic, mythical gods, action, intrigue and just a hint of romance that it makes it amazing. From the first excerpt I was curious, by the end of the second excerpt I needed more. When I got the full book I’m pretty sure I read it whenever I had a spare moment because I was hooked.
At the time I read this, the second book had been out for about a month, and I’ve been so busy with work and keeping up with all the reviews I agreed to that I haven’t had a chance to get a copy of the second book. But if it’s anything like the first, I’m sure I’ll love that one too!
