Leoven, youngest prince of Daziralm, has been fighting on the front lines of what seems like a pointless war between his country and their neighbors, Fathor, when he receives word that his entire family, save his only little sister, has been killed and his family’s guardian deity, Indiris, has awakened from his centuries-long slumber.
Leoven returns home to find a younger sister deeply in mourning, a Fathorn ambassador eager to resume talks of a mysterious treaty, a distinct lack of clues in the deaths of his parents and younger siblings, and a minor god far more beautiful than his statues had ever led Leoven to believe.
Can Leoven unravel the mystery behind his family’s death and restore the fragile peace between Daziralm and Fathor before he falls afoul of his family’s killer? They say that minor gods can perform minor miracles in the service of their family, but will that be enough?
3.5☆ - I do love this author's imagination, and while they tend to very casually drop in horrific plot points based on the few stories of theirs that I've read so far, I enjoy them and will keep reading more in the hopes that they develop into an author who can get me emotionally invested in the romance, as well.
I occasionally choose a book by an author unknown to me and who does not yet have reviews and cross my fingers. This book wasn't bad, it was just not remarkable. There were facts but there weren't deep emotions linked to them it was like just at surface level and I like my books more deep.
