The Court of Unforgiving Gods: The Blood of the Gods

by Abby Moore

The fates created the Gods to ensure peace within their kingdoms. The Gods are the most powerful beings in all the realms, which means nothing can stop them from abusing the power that was given to them.
For decades, the Gods abused fae, humans, and other beings alike. To restore the balance, the fates created the one creature that can kill even a God.
The Dragon's hellfire can kill any being it touches, making Gods and Dragons mortal enemies.
King Granger of the dragons is a force to be reckoned with. He has not been seen since the war of the dragons began, and his father was brutally murdered in the war. He never wanted to be king, but he will protect his people from any unwanted beings.
Capri, Daughter of King Ragnar, must go to Beithir, Kingdom of the Dragons, for a mission. Her mission? Take over Beithir, either alongside their King or by force. If she fails, her father, the God king, will kill her mother.

5/5 ⭐️

This book had me absolutely hooked from the very beginning. Capri was an absolute badass && I loved watching her growth.
I cannot wait for this book to be out in the wild for everyone to read && love!! There is a cliffhanger at the end that will emotionally scar you (we love that, here) buttt it was so so good.
Granger can be everyone’s new dragon daddy 😏

what?!

I loved the book truly loved it I was reading it like I didn’t have any more time. Our FMC caprri is a certified bad a***! That cliffy made me throw my kindle across the room though. I need more 😩

I loved this book! I especially love the way Abby writes, it keeps me entranced for hours on end. Capri is so wonderfully written, and I love the family she gains throughout the book. I can’t wait for the second one!

I struggled a bit with the novel strictly because I tend to gravitate towards strong FMCs. Capri appears to be a strong FMC to start, living fairly independently and standing up for herself and her mother, but soon you start seeing her actions and hearing her inner monologue where she chooses to defend her evil father and family despite them never treating her well and clearly using her. Her naiviety throughout the book drove me nuts until the very end. I like the world building, love the MMC and his friends but Capri's inability to see her situation is bonkers

[Mikayla Lott · Rating 5 out of 5]

The plot was excellent and paced very well. I was sucked in from the first page. I had to force myself to stop reading and go to sleep a few nights. Capri and Granger are both super lovable characters and are so perfect together. Also super lovable side characters like Caspian and Everett and even Callahan(I knew he’d come around). I am super excited to see what all unfolds in the next book. I don’t know how I’m going to wait because it was getting unbelievably good!!

Abby never fails to write an AMAZING book! I loved everything, from the fmc and mmc to the plot. Everything is so well written. The ending has you needing more! I loved everything the plot, I love the relationship and friendships. I did not want to put it down, a super easy read! This fmc might just be my favorite! She is sassy and I am HERE for it!! Cannot wait for the next book!

I am absolutely obsessed with this book!!!

Capri is sent to take over a world for her father as a final test in order for her to join the family since she is the bastard child of the god king. Her bothers and father all underestimate her and don’t know the extent of her powers. She is determined to complete this test to set herself and her mother free from her father. But what Capri finds when she arrives on this new world with turn her world upside down.

King Granger wasn’t supposed to be king his father was still supposed to be king. He has just been trying to bring his people together and stop the war between his people for too long.

This book has so much packed into it!!! There is a great plot, a strong fmc, found family, enemies to lovers, and fated mates. The spice is written perfectly within the plot and it is so good. The cliffhanger this book ends of is absolutely devastating and I am not ok I want to read the next book Already!!!

The Court of Unforgiving Gods is absolutely phenomenal. Abby Moore builds a world that grabs you from the first page and refuses to let go. The characters, the magic, the tension, everything is crafted with such heart and intensity. I couldn’t put it down.

I was a little worried about this book since it was off to a slow start but around 20% in, things started to get juicy. Our FMC Capri has quite a few tricks up her sleeve and I was honestly left speechless. Our MMC is King Granger and oh my, if you love a he fell first trope this book is for you. There’s banter, there’s spice, there’s plot twists that you weren’t expecting. There are definitely a lot of things that were left unanswered but because this is an incomplete series I am very curious and excited to see how we get the rest of the information in the other books. This book does end on a cliffhanger so as soon as the next book gets announced I will be rereading this! I would highly recommend this book for your next romantasy!

[Kirby Coxie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Abby always writes the best books and this one didn't disappoint! The cliff hanger at the end had me gasping and tapping my kindle for more. It had love, tragedy, & spice. Definitely recommend.

[Andrea Baldwin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Always a good time. Quick moving plot and interesting concepts.

[Jace Stewart · Rating 5 out of 5]

Amazing book and an easy 5 star. I loved all the components of the book, crazy strong fmc, enemies to lovers, war, politics, unique magic system, unexpected plot twists, easy to follow world building, super strong cliff hanger that has me wanting more, and family vs. family. This book reminds me “Percy Jackson” and I love that series and I highly recommend reading this.

[Carly Taylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this story. Took me a minute to get into it (mood reader here) but once the plot started plotting I didn’t look back. I loved the fmc Capri, she is a powerhouse. The MMC Granger was also a surprisingly strong dragon shifter with shadow powers. Their relationship was clear from the beginning but watching it build was really impressive. Check this out if you like romantasy, this will 100% be for you!

[Courtney Buchanan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Once again, Abby has wrote a wonderful story!!

I love Capri and she may just be my favorite FMC. She is strong, kind, and doesn’t care to do what is needed in order to protect herself or the ones she cares about.

I loved the found family aspect and getting to know all of the dragons and the love story that unfolds. I truly don’t think I can wait for the second book, because WOW, I need answers!!

[Kaylee K · Rating 5 out of 5]

Romantasy babes NEED to jump onto this book! This has the spice, the plot, the dragon shifters, and the Gods, this book focuses on the war between not only the gods & dragons but also an inner war between the dragons! the dynamic is really fun and abby Moore executed it amazingly!!! Definitely recommend!!!

📖Capri, daughter of the God King, has been sent to another realm to either become an equal with their King, King Granger, or take over by force. She has her work cut out for her since King Granger is King of the Dragons, a species who loathes the Gods. The Fates had created both species for balance, Dragons are the only species that are able to kill a God. Gods who go there do not return, but she must in order to save her mother from her evil fathers and brothers wrath.

When Capri gets there, she has to help unite both the north and south, since they are at war with each other. Her hope is that this will allow the dragons to see her as a positive to their realm. However, she is considered “God Trash” there, and many do not respect her. Together, she and King Granger will work to bring both the north and south together, but when Capri starts to realize it is not just her mother she wants to protect, everything about her mission becomes harder.

📝This book was just great. The world building was well done and the characters well developed. The found family aspect was one of my favorite parts of the book. The slow burn and tension that builds up was the chefs kiss.

The best part about this book was that it is unique. There is no comparison to other popular books like Fourth Wing or ACOTAR. This book was just … an amazing book. It was a great read and I encourage everyone to check it out!! It comes out November 25th and you do NOT want to miss it. Keep an eye out on KU and on my page for a giveaway in December!!!

Love a good frat dragon. But for real the dragons are so cool!

[Amber Arehart · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved this book so much!! I had to make myself put it down and the plot mixed with the romance was so well done! Both of our main characters were so well written, they were easy to imagine and the chemistry between them was so good. I love the dragon shifter fantasy books and this one exceeded my expectations!!

[Rachael Engelman · Rating 5 out of 5]

I didn't expect to be fully into this, as fantasy is my preferred go-to genre, but boy was I surprised to be so engaged throughout this book. The complex relationships within her father's side of the family vs her mother vs her friends vs her strong self-determination vs her newfound relationships... so many twists and turns that developed such a strong storyline.

[Sherae Mize · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is my 3rd book I’ve read by Abby and she has had some phenominal growth. This book was was more detailed and the character development was phenomenal. The plot twists and the cliff hanger was perfect and I already have book 2 on my “run to the shelves” list when it releases

[Erin O’Brien · Rating 5 out of 5]

Abby doesn’t again!! This book is amazing the pace that it’s at left me not wanting to put it down. It’s such a good Romantasy I need the second book ASAP. So many twists and turns. I’m in love with the characters the whole store is 10/10 I’m in love

[Mallory Reid · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was so good. One of my favorite. She will be an auto buy author for me. I can't wait for the second book to come out because man that Clift hanger @abbymoore why did you do that to us. I am not sure which one I like best viper Den or this one!!! They are both some of my favorites

[Tessa Reynolds · Rating 5 out of 5]

[Harper · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was soooo freaking good!!!

[Nicoletta Papalas · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Court of Unforgiving Gods completely wrecked me—in the best way. Capri is the kind of main character I live for: unapologetic, fearless, and absolutely done with everyone’s nonsense. She’s a God in a world ruled by dragons who could kill her without blinking… and she genuinely does not care.

Watching her step into deadly political territory and attempt to broker peace between the dragons of the North and South—while casually positioning herself as their ruler or co-ruler—was wildly satisfying. She relies on sheer will, intelligence, and an unshakable sense of self. And will do anything to protect her mother.

The tension in this book is constant, the power dynamics are delicious, and Capri never once makes herself smaller to survive. If you love fantasy with ruthless gods, dangerous dragons, and a female lead who refuses to be intimidated by anyone (or anything), this book is an absolute must-read. Also the romance and banter between the FMC and MMC, is just *chefs kiss*. Abby is such an amazing writer and a very inspirational person.

My favorite read of 2026 so far!
