Goddess of Limbo
by Lea Falls
Creative, captivating, full, character-driven, growth-oriented, adventurous
Goddess of Limbo is a creative and enchanting epic fantasy story with the delightful magic of the gods. This character-driven novel tells the story of how a group of unexpected heroes fight against gods and demons to save their souls. This premise seems to dream big and I was really pleased to see how interesting the characters are, how creative the world is, and how much everyone seems to grow throughout the book. Though it is a lengthy novel, it is perfect for those looking for a refreshing and different epic fantasy. If you are sick of the standard loosely veiled medieval England tome that is often epic fantasy (that’s me! Very tired of this!) Goddess of Limbo is a perfectly refreshing read!
Quick Summary: The days of free will are gone. Souls have a prewritten path toward heaven but if they miss it, they are doomed to roam Limbo as splinters of who they once were or demons. The reaper Alames, whose own soul has been shattered when her lover, Balthos, rebelled against their creators to make them gods. When a new generation begins to defy Balthos, Alame’s splinters begin to appear again. This cast of underdogs must fight demons, gods, and oppression to save themselves.
Goddess of Limbo really impressed me with its characters. Most books that have so many characters often make me lose track of each of them as they start to blend together. In this novel, I did not feel like any of the characters were blending together at all. It handles the vast amount of characters so well. Each character has their own personality and their own goals and feelings in mind, none of them feel like they are blending together as is so often the case in books with so many characters. Not only were they all characterized so well, but that also made them have interesting and compelling relationships with each other.
