About the Book

The River flowed from the mountains to the distant sea, and everywhere he touched, he ruled. And his blood ran thick in the veins of Nhol's Royal Family. But the god's power had a price: some members of the Family were never seen after puberty, and dark rumours abounded concerning their fate. When the magic woke in her, Princess Hezhi fled for her life into the lands beyond the River's reach. With Perkar, a youth in search of honour, and loyal Tsem, her half-Giant bodyguard, she sought refuge among the barbarian Mang. But in those demon-infested hinterlands, until she learned to wield the powers of her birthright, her sanity and her soul would be at risk. And grisly danger pursued her - the River bent all his might and slumbrous cunning to the task of finding his wayward child. Only the Blackgod knew how to defeat the River. But the Blackgod was a creature of guile and limitless duplicity; to trust him might be the most perilous move she could make . . .

About the Author :
Greg Keyes is a teacher at the University of Georgia and is pursuing a Ph.D in the anthropology of belief systems and mythology. He was born in Mississippi and raised there and on the Navajo reservation in Arizona. The Blackgod is a sequel to his first novel, THE WATERBORN.

Review :
This is a satisfyingly robust, impressive debut PUBLISHERS WEEKLY 'The settings are colourful and different, giving this first novel a richness that stands out even in the ranks of works by established writers.' LOCUS 'This sequel to The Waterborn doesn't stand alone. Together these two books make a complete adventure; they're exciting, absorbing reading. Hezhi and Perkar cannot easily resolve their respective personal, magical and supernatural problems, and the Blackgod, Karak, has his own plans for them as well. Their battle with the Rivergod is not over and the resulting conflict on every level wracks the princess and her hero, straining their friendship and alliances with everyone. They learn to make decisions, not on impulse, but knowing the costs of their choices and accepting them.' AMAZON.CO.UK
