Kaner, Hannah - Godkiller
In a world of gods and mortals, Kissen, a skilled godkiller, must embrace her divine lineage to save those she loves from an ancient prophecy. Kissen's family was slaughtered by zealots of a fire god, and now she makes a living hunting and killing gods for profit. Her life takes a dramatic turn when she encounters Skedi, a god of white lies who has somehow bound himself to a young noble. Together, they must travel to the ruined city of Blenraden, where the last of the wild gods reside, to beg a favour from each. Pursued by demons, and in the midst of a burgeoning civil war, they will all face a reckoning.
