The Last Age of the Gods (en Inglés) - Daniel L Smith

The gods gave humanity safety. Cassian Vale never thought to question the price.

Above a world believed lost to monsters, humanity survives in floating cities under the protection of the gods. In the fortress city of Ironhold, hunters descend beneath the clouds to defend their people, earning divine blessings through courage and blood.

Cassian Vale is among their greatest. Respected by his fellow hunters and celebrated as the Favored, he has spent his life believing that every creature he kills brings humanity closer to safety.

Then a dying monster speaks.

Its final words challenge everything Cassian knows-and point him toward Hades, a god whose name has been erased from the world’s devotion.

When doubt turns Ironhold’s celebrated hunter into a fugitive, Cassian leaves behind his home, his reputation, and Aiden, the lifelong friend he calls his brother. Pursued by the people he once fought beside, he follows a trail through distant cities, forbidden archives, and forgotten lands, where unexpected allies force him to reconsider who deserves his trust.

But uncovering the truth is only the beginning. Bringing it home could turn brother against brother and threaten the foundations of the world he hoped to protect.

As faith collides with conscience, Cassian must decide what being a hunter truly means-and how much he is willing to sacrifice for humanity’s right to choose its own future.

The Last Age of the Gods, the first book in The Gods & Mortals Saga by Daniel L. Smith, is an epic fantasy inspired by Greek mythology, exploring brotherhood, power, buried history, and the cost of questioning those who claim to protect us.
