The Hunger of the Gods

In John Gwynne's "The Hunger of the Gods," the highly anticipated continuation of his Norse-inspired epic, the terrifying dragon god Lik-Rifa has been unleashed from her ancient prison, her malevolent ambition set on an era of unparalleled destruction and conquest. Across the fractured lands, heroes grapple with their own desperate quests. Orka, driven by an unyielding maternal fury, presses on with her relentless hunt for her abducted son, navigating a world increasingly consumed by chaos. Meanwhile, the formidable Bloodsworn, battling against time, race south to rescue one of their own, as Varg embarks on a brutal path of vengeance that promises to reshape his destiny. Elvar, bound by a sacred blood oath, endeavors to free a captive from Lik-Rifa’s clutches and her dragon-born cult, first needing to rally the fierce Battle-Grim to her cause. Yet, even the combined might of these warrior clans may not suffice against a deity. Their ultimate hope lies in the cryptic, forbidden writings of a mad, chained god, a tome of ancient magic capable of resurrecting the legendary wolf god, Ulfrir, thereby igniting a cataclysmic confrontation that threatens to shatter the very foundations of their world.
