The Stone God by Erin Kellison
5.0
The Stone God is a brand new fantasy series by Erin Kellison.
I went into The Stone God not too sure if I’d enjoy. I’ve had hit and misses with fantasy books that feature gods playing with peoples lives. It took me a bit to get into the story, but once I understood the rules of the world I couldn’t put the novel down and read way too late.
The gods play their selfish games moving humans and their offspring around to suit themselves, but there is more at play than the gods playing around.
This novel is full of action, intrigue, adventure, and a bit of romance. Kellison captures the character’s identity’s, thoughts, and emotions. The eccentric gods and characters are delightful, captivating, and they have depth. You end up feeling the characters emotions, heart break, struggles, and happiness.
Terah wants nothing to do with the gods, but she ends up caught up in the gods schemes and is forced into a position that she doesn’t want nor is ready for. I adored Terah! She’s forthright, polite, tactful, and challenges herself. We see her take everything in stride and not waver from her beliefs.
As for the romance; Terah has a love interest dangled in front of her. What I liked is that she doesn’t just jump in. I’m not sure on the romance aspect yet, but there is potential. The other thing I liked about the romance is that it’s in the background and plays second to what is playing out on the main stage.
The Stone God turned out to be an unexpected treat. Its suspenseful, fun, gripping and full of sly humor. There is so much at play and I can’t wait to dive into the next book.
Rated: 4.5 Stars
