Medicine and Poison [Epic Fantasy - Vol I & II]

The gods did not create the world. They re-moulded it in their own image. But as the newly arrived deities empowered Kings and Prophets, the shadows of human nature affected heaven, too. That's how the wars began. Volume 1 – Complete Oli is always getting lost in the forest. He's the only Sevener who can't see the paths, no matter how hard his parents try to teach him. But this time it's serious. He goes missing on the brink of a war between the devout Western Kingdom and the anti-theist Republic, with the Sevener's homeland – Saltleaf Forest – caught in the middle. As he travels with an unexpected companion – a medicine man gifted with magic that's inseparable from his madness – he unearths the hidden histories of his tribe, his own family and the life-cycle of a forgotten god. When he learns about his own place in it, he realises he must find the courage to enter a terrifying new world or face losing everyone he loves. Volume 2 – Ongoing Prince Tancred has been cast aside as heir to the Western throne in favour of his adopted brother, Cadra. Still smarting from the injury and struggling to adjust to his new place in court, he nevertheless champions the cause of the Sevener refugees flooding the capital. But their charismatic and talented leader, Adalina, is viewed with suspicion by many of his peers and helping her could lose him what status he has left. Meanwhile, Demetos licks his wounds following a shocking defeat at the forest border. The Sevener clans that remained in the forest are resisting his invasion more capably than anticipated, even though he is now armed with his fearsome new weapon – the firearm. But Advocate Demetos already has new plans. He’s on the verge of an alliance that will secure him a place of glory in Republican history – and infamy in the rest of the world. Gods, science and ancient monsters clash in a struggle that could earn its victors eternal glory or tip the world into chaos and ruin. Join thenewsletter. Join thediscord!
