Blood of the Four by Christopher Golden

3.0

I couldn't tell two authors wrote this novel, it transitioned seamlessly from chapter to chapter. It's an interesting story of absolute power corrupting absolutely. I felt more time could have been spent on a detailed history lesson of the gods and their magic. Because it is a standalone fantasy with a little less than 500 pages, there was no freedom for the authors to fully flush out characters, nevertheless, it seemed enough to be able to image their history to match how they were presented. A few times I noticed some historical similarity of some Biblical stories. The ending came too quickly, this novel could have benefited from being a part of a series.
