God Among Us

When Maya’s village angers their celestial Keeper, Lord Yugan, his punishment is swift and unforgiving. What follows shatters Maya’s world. In her anguish, she makes a reckless wish—that Yugan learn what it means to suffer. And then, the god falls. Stripped of his divinity and cast into the mortal realm, Yugan is desperate to reclaim his power and return to the heavens. But the road back is steeped in danger. Bound by a fragile alliance, Maya and the fallen Keeper traverse lawless territories, ruthless bandits, a mirage island that devours the unwary, and the ever-watchful Academy—an enigmatic force that hunts fallen gods for reasons no one dares speak aloud. As shifting loyalties collide with buried truths, Maya discovers that breaking a god is easy. Surviving beside one is not. Because some wishes reshape worlds. And sending Yugan home may demand a price Maya is not prepared to pay.
