Forsworn

Dead God #2

by Richard Lee Byers

SCARRED LANDS FORSWORN, DEAD GOD #2

Vladawen the Titanslayer, the high priest of a dead elven god, continues his quest to resurrect his deity. Following prophecies and portents, he and his companions head first to Hollowfaust, the dread City of Necromancers, and then into the wasteland beyond to explore the ruined cities of the Slarecians, a people so vile the gods and titans cooperated to destroy them.

These fortresses of the unhallowed dead welcome the Titanslayer with gaping maws. He finds there scheming mystics and shambling undead, the vengeful ghosts of those who died in his name, and an enemy who may be even viler than the titans. The resurrection of his god may mean the destruction of all he loves.

Can he forswear his faith to save his world?

[Daniel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Second book in the series. This one was better than the first and still yet a quick and enjoyable read.
