Shogun of The Heavens:
The Fall of Immortals by I.D.G. Curry transports readers into the world of
mythology when gods and monsters engaged in phenomenal conflict. A powerful
threat moves towards Gaia, and even Zeus feels threatened as he recalls the forewarning
of the Sisters of Fate: “The son of a
hurricane will disrupt the world’s balance and spread chaos across the
heavens.” In the chaos that ensures, the gods as well as powerful beings
find themselves enmeshed in conflict, a Fallen Immortal is dogged by
mercenaries and he finds himself pursued even by those who once were treasured
friends in another life. How far will he go to claim what is rightfully his?
Mythology is reinvented in this hugely imaginative and immersive tale of
mortals and Gods, a perfect opening to a series that will enthrall fans of epic
fantasy. I.D.G. Curry is a great storyteller who writes in exquisite prose,
creating a world that is brimming with magic and characters that are
larger-than-life, intriguing, and sophisticated. I adored the way Xauldin is
written. Other characters are equally complex and elaborately explored. The
prose is descriptive and the author has a terrific way of introducing the
characters, from gods like Zeus to the characters like Xara. “Xara’s beauty was the embodiment of desire.
Her long, dark dreadlocks hung down to her hips, and her orange eyes complimented
her flawless bronze skin.” The cinematic writing and the vivid imagery are
elements that ground this narrative, giving readers a unique sense of adventure
and taking them to worlds that are exciting to explore. The author skillfully
depicts the complex relationships between the characters and successfully
balances the emotionally resonant with the frightening.
