About The Book
Falian thinks he’s insignificant. He’s about to discover a destiny that will affect the world. He’s about to find a love that will change it.
When Falian refuses to accept a job he has been ordered to take on, one that would involve hurting people, he embarks on a momentous journey to change his life. To his shock Quithlade, the Storm God, and Bymbles, a celestial imp, decide to join him.
Falian and Quithlade grow closer, but the Storm God had a previous relationship that will have a profound effect on the tentative feelings Falian is starting to have. Quithlade is irresistible, though, with a clearly undeserved reputation for untrustworthy behaviour that makes no sense. He is kind and affectionate, with extraordinary powers including the ability to shape-shift into various different creatures.
Falian thought he knew everything about the mortal world, but he’s about to discover supernatural creatures he never knew existed and face worse danger than he thought possible.
Deities and mortals aren’t supposed to mix; they certainly aren’t meant to fall in love. Find out if Falian can get a happy ending in the first book in an epic fantasy series with an entire pantheon of deities who just can’t seem to stop getting into trouble.
The Review
I always try to be honest in my reviews, so when I say I was convinced I would not like this book, I’m telling the truth. But not only did I like it, I am looking forward to more.
The author has created a fascinating world filled with interesting characters. This is Falian and Quithlade’s tale, and it’s quite a story. Falian has been forced to spend his life as a warrior, when he has always dreamed of being a healer. Giving up the warrior life would leave him an outcast, but he does it anyway.
Driven out with stones and curses, he leaves everything he knew behind to return to his childhood home and get support from his parents in his quest to be a healer. While on his journey, he is shocked to find a winged horse. He has no idea why this horse has chosen to accompany him, but its company is greatly appreciated.
Falian will soon to discover that the winged horse is actually Quithlade, the Storm God. That revelation comes thanks to Bymbles, an imp who is in big trouble with the deities, due to his trick of making some of their castles disappear.
His punishment was to spend ten years in a room he had spent time in before. Only this time, he used the secret tunnel he had dug out before. When he enters the mortal world, he sees his friend Quithlade in disguise, and lets the cat out of the bag.
Bymbles keeps trying to get Quithlade to reveal the reason he is so attached to Falian, and why he came to the mortal world in the first place. The trip to Falian’s home proves perilous, with strange creatures threatening the motley party.
I couldn’t help but love Falian. he puts others before himself, no matter what the risk.
The story is filled with betrayal, lies, secrets, surprises and danger, an adventure from beginning to end. It’s a tale of eternal love, something that you must read for yourself to truly understand.
4 Stars.
