Synopsis
Godblind is an epic fantasy novel set in the small, land-locked kingdom of Rilpor, whose peaceful worship of the Ranged gods is threatened by its hostile western neighbors, the Mireces, a people devoted to blood-thirsty gods demanding sacrifice and conquest. As the Mireces prepare a large-scale invasion of Rilpor, the novel follows multiple characters on both sides of the coming conflict, including Rilporian soldiers and nobles unprepared for the scale of the threat gathering at their border, and Mireces warriors and priests driven by religious conviction to see Rilpor conquered in their gods' name. As the invasion draws closer, Rilpor's fractured leadership and the Mireces' zealotry set the stage for a brutal confrontation between the two societies' opposing gods and ways of life.
