Empire of the Gods - Patrick D. Catlett

In a realm where the whisper of the old gods remains, peace is a fragile illusion. The kingdom of Su'Meeryn stands at a crossroads. As the beloved King Jaleph nears the end of his reign, his great-grandson, Prince Hellet prepares to inherit a throne fraught with enemies and divine forces. Yet, Hellet is not alone in his struggles. Princess Dellea, caught in a loveless betrothal and bound to a kingdom she despises, finds solace only in the company of her wolves. But as her heart yearns for freedom, destiny calls her to a role far greater than she could have ever imagined.

With the rumbling of a growing evil, the young heirs must navigate a treacherous world where struggle and suffering await. The rise of a new age is upon them, and their choices will shape the future of their kingdoms. Will the divine forces that pull the strings of fate favor them, or will they be consumed by the very darkness they seek to vanquish?

In Empire of the Gods, the line between mortal and immortal is blurred, and the fate of the world rests in the hands of those who dare to defy the gods.
