General Analysis

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Shadow of the Gods" by John Gwynne, is a dark fantasy tale set in a world where the old gods are dead but their influence still shapes the lives of mortals. The story follows three main characters: Orka, a warrior seeking vengeance for her murdered husband and stolen son; Varg, a former slave who wants freedom and to avenge his sister; and Elvar, a warrior caught between loyalty to her father and her desire to forge her own path. The narrative explores themes of vengeance, family, freedom, and the lingering power of ancient gods, with the characters' journeys taking them towards a larger conflict that will determine the fate of their world. The concept of being "tainted" by the blood of the gods is key to the story, as are the themes of blood oaths and the nature of power.
