Despite the gods' indifference, the Wraák endure. Rhekran-Rhen to the few who know her well enough-was their miracle: a master of Quinturgy who should have died in a field of fire and ash. Instead, she woke on a stone table with the gods' eyes upon her and a city's fate pressed into her scarred hands.
The Skaaran Hinterlands raised her on oaths and discipline; Jura teaches her different laws-smoke, money, and fear. The Arsoth Regime owns the factories, the streets, and every breath the Essentier Tribes are allowed to take. To pry the city loose, Rhen becomes what the occupiers don't expect: a shadow at the edge of lamplight, a rumor wrapped in a war hood, a blade cutting where the Thread is weakest.
But favors from gods are never free. The souls of her ancestors murmur warnings she cannot decipher. A friend rots in prison. A map promises a clean strike-and a clean death. And the more Rhen bends light and stone to her will, the more the Weave tugs back, demanding payment in bone and breath.
Epic, intimate, and charged with a living magic system, Despite the Gods is a story of oaths, survival, and the dangerous hope of those who refuse to stay gone.
