Synopsis

Once human but now immortal, Supreme Commander Lord Tanaros fled the realm of Men and chose darkness when he killed his adulterous wife and his liege king who cuckholded him. A thousand years have passed in service to his master, the dark god Satoris. The world view Satoris as Evil Prime and the name of Tanaros is the byword for treachery.

The races have united in their quest to rid the world of the Dark God and his minions. The key to the prophecy is the beautiful Elvish princess Cerelinde—and Satoris has captured her.

Yet not all tales told are true and evil may have another face. Satoris refuses to act like the monster that he is made out to be for he recognizes in Cerelinde a spark of the love that he once bore for his fellow gods. But this spark of light might prove to be a danger to Satoris . . . and a greater danger for Tanaros and all that he holds dear. For Cerelinde might remind him that the heart that he willed to iron an eon ago is still very much mortal.

Goodreads review by Talkswithwind on August 30, 2007

This is a review for the series. The other book is Banewreaker. If you hear "Jacqueline Carey" and think Kushiel's Dart, you may be mighty tempted to pick up this series based on that. Don't. There are no subby women with bottomless capacities for pain in this series. Heck, it isn't even D'angeline. Ve......more

Goodreads review by THE BIBLIOPHILE on April 03, 2018

A grand tragic conclusion to one of the most beautifuly written fantasy novels of all time (in my opinion). 'Godslayer' will create emotional ripples in my heart for as long as I can remember. The story, the characters, and the mythology is imbued with such passion and power. This is a book which doe......more
