The Hunger of the Gods

John Gwynne

The Hunger of the Gods continues John Gwynne's acclaimed Norse-inspired epic fantasy series packed with myth magic and bloody vengeance

Lik-Rifa the dragon god of legend has been freed from her eternal prison. Now she plots a new age of blood and conquest.

As Orka continues the hunt for her missing son the Bloodsworn sweep south in a desperate race to save one of their own - and Varg takes the first steps on the path of vengeance.

Elvar has sworn to fulfil her blood oath and rescue a prisoner from the clutches of Lik-Rifa and her dragonborn followers but first she must persuade the Battle-Grim to follow her.

Yet even the might of the Bloodsworn and Battle-Grim cannot stand alone against a dragon god.

Their hope lies within the mad writings of a chained god. A book of forbidden magic with the power to raise the wolf god Ulfrir from the dead . . . and bring about a battle that will shake the foundations of the earth.

Praise for The Bloodsworn series:

'A masterfully crafted brutally compelling Norse-inspired epic' Anthony Ryan

'Visceral heart-breaking and unputdownable' Jay Kristoff

'A satisfying and riveting read. The well-realised characters move against a backdrop of a world stunning in its immensity. It's everything I've come to expect from a John Gwynne book' Robin Hobb
