Ortus Deorum (Birth of Gods) - Book Description
In a world where gods are not merely born but composed, Ortus Deorum follows the tale of Liza, a young woman caught between mortality and divinity, and Tom, the enigmatic bird-like conductor of fate who seeks the perfect melody to shape the world's destiny. Bound by music, destiny, and the relentless march of transformation, their journey is both a symphony of creation and a tragedy of loss.
Liza, once a human, now finds herself evolving into something beyond comprehension-a being woven from technology, alchemy, and the blood of a lycanthrope. As she struggles with the changes in her body and soul, she is guided and tested by Noés, a figure who sees her potential but warns of the cost. Alongside her stands Tom, a Clamado bird with the power to channel the universe's music, torn between protecting her and pushing her to ascend beyond her limitations.
When Liza's emotions reach their breaking point, she is faced with an unbearable truth: will she hold on to her humanity, or will she embrace the transformation that will elevate her to godhood? Meanwhile, ancient forces stir in the background-divine beings, celestial compositions, and a universe that seeks balance between chaos and order.
With lyrical prose, deep philosophical questions, and an immersive world rich in mythology and futuristic fantasy, Ortus Deorum is a breathtaking exploration of power, identity, and the eternal conflict between destiny and free will. A tale where music is not just sound, but the force that binds reality together, this is a story of those who dare to become more than human-who dare to create, destroy, and redefine what it means to exist.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- Mythological fantasy with a sci-fi twist
- Thought-provoking themes of identity and transformation
- A lyrical, poetic writing style with deep emotional weight
- Characters struggling between humanity and divinity
- Worlds where music, power, and destiny intertwine
Will Liza succumb to the fate laid before her, or will she compose her own destiny? The answer lies in the music of her soul.
