Fables & Fantasy Book Club - GodKiller

Wednesday, May 157:00—8:00 PMPeriodicals RoomBurlington Public Library22 Sears Street, Burlington, MA, 01803

Join Daphne and discuss a fantasy book every third Wednesday! The book for May is Godkiller by Hannah Kaner.

Summary: "Gods are forbidden in the kingdom of Middren. Formed by human desires and fed by their worship, there are countless gods in the world--but after a great war, the new king outlawed them and now pays "godkillers" to destroy any who try to rise from the shadows. As a child, Kissen saw her family murdered by a fire god. Now, she makes a living killing them and enjoys it. But all this changes when Kissen is tasked with helping a young noble girl with a god problem. The child's soul is bonded to a tiny god of white lies, and Kissen can't kill it without ending the girl's life too. Joined by a disillusioned knight on a secret quest, the unlikely group must travel to the ruined city of Blenraden, where the last of the wild gods reside, to each beg a favor. Pursued by assassins and demons, and in the midst of burgeoning civil war, they will all face a reckoning. Something is rotting at the heart of their world, and they are the only ones who can stop it."

Books will be available at the circulation desk and on Overdrive/Libby.
