God of Nothing by Shane Scott
5.0
Adult fantasy isn't my usual genre; I'm more of a historical romance type. And the times I've ventured into fantasy, it was more in the line of Harry Potter or the Magic Tree House books, of which I've read several with my son. I found this book which perusing Amazon, and since it was on sale, I decided to give it a try. I mean, it was only .99 cents. Oh my, I'm so happy I did! I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The story that unfolds is, in a word, fantastical. There are gods, demons, bools (which encompass a combination of a human and some animal), vampires, and much more. The author does a fantastic job building an entire world with unique beings who not only co-exist but intermingle. It truly is a work of genius. In a way, it reminded me of Star Wars in that all these various beings co-exist within the universe and have the ability to travel from one planet to another. Although, unlike Star Wars, there are no space ships, and there is no war. LOL
The story unfolds on Earth, with a significant portion occurring Gella, another planet in the All. The All is the universe that God created. What I liked best about this book is that at its heart, it is a story about a family—God's family. Yes, THE God. Only in this book, the author depicts God as a woman. We learn about how God created her universe, the All, how she made her life partner, and what subsequently happens to their descendants after the two are separated. The story made for a very entertaining read and is sure to delight any lover of fantasy books. Happy reading!
