Description

"A ruthless, epic, and darkly hilarious read." --Sara Hashem, author of The Jasad Heir

A divinely blessed warrior bound to the last living goddess plots deicide to win her freedom in this propulsive epic fantasy for fans of Godkiller and Gideon the Ninth.

The Devoted Lands was once home to many gods. Now, after centuries of brutal wars, only Tempestra-Innara, the Enduring Flame, remains.

As a divine warrior, Lys is outwardly loyal to her goddess. If she dreams of deicide, that's her business. When a routine heretical execution erupts into a near-fatal assassination attempt on Tempestra-Innara, Lys sees a glimmer of hope for her freedom.

Lys is chosen to hunt down the heretics and find an ancient reliquary with the power to kill a god. Annoyingly, she's not alone. Paired with Nolan, a warrior from a rival cloister who is as pious as he is determined, Lys must feign devotion if she hopes to keep her own god-killing ambitions within reach.

But as they pursue the heretics linked to the assassination, Lys uncovers a world with more possibility--and peril--than she ever anticipated.

Critical Reviews

"Fun, irreverent, and propulsive. Ely creates an oppressive theocratic world populated by dodgy gods and fascinating mortals. This is the start of an explosive series!" --T. L. Huchu, author of The Library of the Dead

"The multilayered mythology, ambitious quest narrative, and urgency of Lys's sarcastic narrative voice keep the pages flying. With twists, betrayals, and revelations aplenty, this will have readers hooked."-- "Publishers Weekly"

"Steeped in ancient secrets and heart-pounding adventure, The Lost Reliquary will sweep you into a brutal world of corrupted power and uneasy alliances. A ruthless, epic, and darkly hilarious read." --Sara Hashem, author of The Jasad Heir

"Action-packed and original, The Lost Reliquary is a riveting adventure set in a brutal world of religious oppression. Lys's struggles to manage past trauma and a long-buried hatred of the very power she's sworn to serve gripped me from the very first page." --M. H. Ayinde, author of A Song of Legends Lost
