An utter triumph and a masterclass in pure, unbridled storytelling that stokes the imagination with lush prose, rich mythology, vivid characters, and a world completely unlike any I’ve ever experienced or will ever experience again.

In this bold narrative that spans generations, Simon Jimenez tackles human greed and divine intervention with the subtlety and incisiveness of a well-honed blade.
