Imagine a world where gods are powerful beings created by human hopes and desires and sustained by prayers and sacrifices. This is the backdrop for Hannah Kaner’s ongoing trilogy, the Fallen Gods series. In that world, gods are created and made more powerful by human emotions, but will fade away if they’re forgotten. Though some provide benefits to humans, many demand a high price for their help, and most are more interested in gaining power than in keeping their word. This has led to serious consequences for the humans—culminating in a war that took place before the events of the first book, but which has deeply affected the country. Perhaps most notably, it led the victorious new king, Arren, to outlaw all gods.
