So this follows a bunch (no like.... I lost count of how many) people all trying to defeat some, essentially, magic robots because one god has decided mortals are kinda stupid and he's gonna kill them all and become the best dictator to ever dictator.

This wasn't actively bad, and the premise is so cool - we get POV of gods even though they're certifiably insane and see their family discourse and all these kingdoms/people who hate each other have to work together to kill the unkillable??? um yes please.

But this just got lost in the sauce. there were just so very many people and kingdoms and religious sects that I genuinely could not keep track. Everyone blurred into one and we got about 2 single pages with each character before we'd jump to another one and so by the end (or if i'm being honest, 50%) I was no longer interested. I pushed through, because it wasn't a bad story per se, it just wasn't a compelling one.
The attempt to get into the personal politics of each country was just too many cooks, this could've been done with ONE country and ONE church and ONE military and been infinitely better for it.

I already have problems with multi POV books because I think there's too much jumping, but usually its at least every chapter, here it was genuinely every 2 pages and there were about 6 groups of people and then each group of people had like 3 that we could get the POV of... and it then just all wrapped up so very conveniently. No one had to work for anything.

A very interesting book. Well written, even if it took me a few chapters to get into it. I liked the gods pov, separating this book from others.

Santi Limonche writes a strong story, it had everything that I was looking for in a fantasy adventure element, it had a great overall feel of this story. It uses the magic perfectly and enjoyed the way the characters were written. I enjoyed getting to read this world and how the concept was executed perfectly.

How do you defend yourself when the Gods start a war against humankind?

The book follows different characters in their fight and you'll see magic and battles along the way.
I also really liked the POV from the Gods - have always been a fan of mythology and enjoy seeing Gods making appearances in the books I read.
There are some minor translation mistakes ("y" instead of "and"), but it didn't bother me at all and didn't interrupt the flow of the story.

I'm gonna give this a 4/5 and will be on the lookout for more books from this author.
