About Aching God
Product Description “Closer, mortal. You are here, finally, to feed the Aching God…” The days of adventure are passed for Auric Manteo. Retired to the countryside and isolated with his scars and riches, he no longer delves into forbidden ruins seeking dark wisdom and treasure. But just as old nightmares begin plaguing his sleep, he receives an urgent summons back to that old life. To save his only daughter, he must return to the place of his greatest trauma: the haunted Barrowlands. Along with a group of inexperienced companions and an old soldier, he must confront the dangers of the ancient and wicked Djao civilization. He has survived fell beasts, insidious traps, and deadly hazards before. But how can he contend with the malice of a bloodthirsty living god? First volume in the planned epic fantasy trilogy Iconoclasts, Aching God is the debut novel by RPG adventure designer Mike Shel. This volume also includes an advanced preview of Iconoclasts - Book II: Sin Eater. Review "Great adventure fantasy with excellent world building." - Django Wexler, author of The Thousand Names "Well-crafted fantasy for adults...This is the novel that kids who played D&D 20 years ago deserve." - Alec Hutson, author of The Crimson Queen and The Silver Sorceress "Bloody brilliant!" - Laura M. Hughes, author of Danse Macabre & co-founder of The Fantasy Hive "On the face of it this is a classic D&D-styled quest but really it's so much more. It's a wise, thoughtful exploration of what such experiences do to people, the prices they pay, how it breaks them down and then leaves them to decide whether they stay broken or somehow stand back up." - Phil Tucker, author of Chronicles of the Black Gate "This novel was a pure joy from the first page to the last." - Cameron Scaggs, The Nerd Book Review "I plan to devour the next volume as soon as it's released. Shel has created an intriguing world of high, epic fantasy that delivers on all fronts." - Adam Weller, Fantasy Book Review "A thoroughly engrossing debut novel that I enjoyed immensely...it's certainly one of my favorite books of 2018. It feels like sword & sorcery Indiana Jones." - Spike Gelato, The Speculative Shelf "This is the best quest-fantasy book I've read in a long time." - Songwind @ r/fantasy
