The Shadow of the Gods

by John Gwynne · The Bloodsworn Saga series

In the shattered land of Vigrio, the gods warred themselves into extinction, leaving a broken world rising from their cataclysmic fall. Gwynne crafts a Norse-inspired epic where warrior cultures clash and monsters prowl the ruins of divine warfare. Blood oaths, battle-glory, and vengeance drive this brutal, immersive saga.
