Book description
Godkiller pulses with something raw and electric. Hannah Kaner's voice-both literally in the audiobook narration and figuratively in her writing-carries this ancient mythic weight while feeling startlingly modern.
The protagonist Kissen exists in that liminal space between vengeance and purpose. Gods died by her hand because they deserved it. Simple as that. Until Skedi complicates everything. A god of white lies bound to a young noble. The absurdity of it. The brilliance.
What strikes me most is how Kaner understands that myth isn't separate from us. It breathes in our digital tools, our community structures, our very human need to tell stories about being human. She studied narrative theory in video games. It shows. The pacing, the world-building, the way tension builds like a boss fight but feels like breathing.
The audiobook format amplifies something essential. There's an intimacy to hearing these voices-Kissen's hardened exterior, the knight's disillusionment, even Skedi's slippery truths. The narration doesn't just tell the story. It inhabits it.
Scotland and northern England live in these pages. Not as backdrop but as character. The same way Kaner's background in storytelling circles informs every interaction. These aren't academic exercises despite that Cambridge degree. This is blood and sword and the uncomfortable questions we whisper to ourselves.
Blenraden waits. The ruined city. Something rotting at the heart of their world. Classic fantasy setup until it isn't. Until it becomes something else entirely.
Kaner gives us stabby swords and angry women. She also gives us something deeper. The stories we tell to survive. The lies we need to live. The gods we create to explain the inexplicable.
The audiobook demands attention. Rewards it too.
