For ages past, the gods have ruled the world, singling out among people the most faithful followers and rewarding them with power over the elements—an unheard-of strength—and other extraordinary abilities. But these chosen ones were nothing more than pieces in a larger game the gods played among themselves. As a result, their conflicts led to people dying, and the planet being shaken by cataclysms. And then appeared those who dared to overthrow the gods’ rule and decide their own fate. From now on, however, the god-fighters are responsible for preserving this world. The main hero—who has always held the god-fighters in awe—learns that he himself possesses their power… and what power it is! Now Viktor Orekhov, nicknamed Tor, is on guard over the world.
In the sixth book, we continue to follow Tor’s adventures. Miraculously returned from Aida, the kingdom of the dead, the hero and his companion do not receive a warm welcome at home, because in their absence a reshuffling of spheres of influence had been underway—and the return of the one who wields such power is now completely untimely. A cold reception almost certainly means the opponents are plotting something, so preparation is needed for the worst—and preferably without trusting anyone. How Tor’s adventure story ends, you’ll find out from the audiobook.
