Kidnapped Gods Series
Journey on a thrilling low-tech fantasy adventure in a world where gods, guns, and swords collide in a clash of ancient traditions and modern weaponry.
In a world where the old gods slumber and slink about, the wild and new gods rule with absolute brutality. All are subject to their whims, especially the warring Dkarul Empire and the mysterious Islands of Maja.
Between these two peoples, wars are fought and lost, and no place of power is promised to anyone, not even the gods themselves. . .
