Godkiller is split into two periods ... there's the pre-nuke world of Silent War and there's the post-nuke world of the graphic novel and illustrated film Walk Among Us. So Silent War is only a prequel insofar as it happens beforehand, but its events drive the Walk Among Us story, and many of the same characters appear in both. I'm super excited that the two stories can roll out together in this integrated way--everything about this project is unorthodox and crazy, hopefully everyone will enjoy the ride.

I loved way too many things about this so I honestly don’t know where to start. I believe the best thing about this book was the fact that even though the magic system and the world were crazy good and fleshed out, the author managed to stay clear of info-dumping. You get the information needed organically and in enough doses so you don’t get overwhelmed and as a person who reads fantasy books religiously, let me just say it’s something that’s hard to come by.
I absolutely adored everything about this book, it was phenomenal! The world was so vibrant and alive, teeming with history and ancient beings; the characters were so real and human, always flawed and always interesting; the prose was beautiful and evocative. I simply cannot fault it! Godkiller by Hannah Kaner is a dark, gritty and highly immersive debut. This is a tale where gods and mortals collide, where myth and legends are brought to life, where having faith could get you killed. The power of belief is strong, worship can bring peace to many but believing in Gods can be deadly. To seek a God's favour, to have their light shine upon you, is to pay a high price. I really enjoyed this book; in my opinion, it hasn't received the attention it deserves. To be completely honest, the plot wasn't groundbreaking, but it was exceptionally well written, and I found the main characters quite relatable.

Thank you Netgalley and HarperCollins UK for providing me with an e-arc in exchange for an honest review. This review has been postponed in support of the HarperCollins Union Strike. Congratulations to the union! but at least, at the very least, he now had someone to fight alongside, though he would not in a thousand years have suspected it would be a god, a godkiller, and a child. The book had a really strong prologue, and then I lost interest. It follows Kissen, a GodKiller (basically similar to Geralt of Rivia but instead of chasing and hunting down monsters for coin, she kills Gods), whose life becomes entangled with a strange girl called Inara and her little god, Skedi. Inara and Skedi’s bond reminded me of the bond that Lyra has with her Daemon in His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman. Fulle Circle Podcast: #70. The Making of "Godkiller" ".

Retrieved 2013-12-30.In illustrated films, we drive the pace of the storytelling with the dramatic voice performances and the sound design, so that allows us to showcase the illustrations in a way where you can really take a moment to absorb the art in the same way you can when reading a comic book ... Motion comics are closer to a form of limited animation that uses comics as source material. Illustrated films are closer to the experimental cinema of Ralph Bakshi's work, Chris Marker's La jetée or animation like Liquid Television. [1] In Godkiller, gods are common, arising at every crossroads, demanding sacrifice and worship. Some are new, some have hardly any power at all, and some are both ancient and powerful. This ecology of divinity has given rise to a profession specialising in getting rid of gods that people want not to have to deal with: the veiga, or godkillers. In contrast to Kissen, we have Elogast, our knight turned baker. Immediately we see Elo is kind, gentle but he is also traumatised by his past. Throughout the novel we see that he is suffering from PTSD, the battles he has fought have left their emotional scars and knowing this we realise just how much strength, loyalty it took for him to help King Arren. These are the kind of characters I am fond of, ones who find the strength to face their personal demons and ones who have a firm sense of honour. However, my most beloved characters were Inara and her tiny god Skediceth. Though Inara is young, she shows as much resilience and courage as Kissen. She knows she’s the daughter of a powerful noble house, her mother has taught her well and she always strives to act accordingly. I loved her bond with Skedi, how this connection allows her to see people’s emotions through colours and how she could always sense if they were lying. Skedi’s form is a cross between a hare and a deer with wings and antlers, always changing his size to become noticeable or stay hidden. Though I found Skedi adorable, I also liked that he was the god of white lies and that power made his character rather untrustworthy throughout. a b Thill, Scott.
