Title: Kill the Gods
Series: Lake of Dragons Series #3
By: E. Michael Mettille
Publication Date: May 15, 2021
Publisher: TMR Books
Cover Design: Mayhem Cover Creations
​
Genre: Epic Fantasy
Picture
Druindahl’s forces have been decimated by a vengeful hero while the castle at Havenstahl lies in ruin, toppled by a violent and angry god. Both great cities desperately need the protection of their heroes, but those heroes are damnably absent. Maelich remains trapped in a fantasy concocted by his own wounded psyche, while Cialia has determined her role is to defend all creatures of Ouloos.

Perrin’s search for her precious Geillan takes her deep into the heart of the place where the maps don’t go, and even deeper into peril. Her journey toward becoming a warrior of the trail will take her to places she can barely imagine and force her to do things she can scarcely believe.

Reinforcements begin docking in Biggon’s Bay, more ships, more Trogmortem, and more terrifying giants. However, their forces are in disarray. Maomnosett Bom, son of Bok, challenges his grandfather’s campaign against the cities of dwarves and men. Ott considers Bom’s behavior an act of war against his own kind. Lucky to make it out alive, the young giant departs with a small group of like-minded warriors to seek an unlikely alliance with the men of Havenstahl.
​
The next battle looms on the horizon as a loose Dragon, born of both the Lake and men, hunts her prey on her campaign to kill the gods.

By the time Tiegran made it up near the main gate, hundreds of men had already formed into tight columns in front of it. Daritus ranged up and down the ranks shouting out the glory of Druindahl and Havenstahl. Even limping the man appeared invincible.

Tarturan grabbed a hold of Tiegran’s arm and tugged him into the formation shouting, “You are with me. We fight until we have no fight left.”

The columns grew as men poured in from every direction. By the time the steady current of bodies rushing up the hill or from the castle or the trees surrounding the road up to the main gate slowed, more than three thousand men stood ready to fight with at least one hundred more on horseback. Some were grizzled men with years of battle reflecting in their hardened stares. Others were green, new recruits with fear in their eyes and innocence in their hearts. Tiegran thought back to his first battle. It had not been that long ago, and he remembered the feeling all too well, the fear in the eyes of those green recruits. It was nothing like what he felt standing in front of the gate at Havenstahl next to Tarturan. A chill of excitement shot up his spine. I have goosebumps. He nearly laughed out loud.

He looked over at Tarturan whose smile was just as big and shouted, “For Havenstahl!”

It nearly brought tears to his eyes when the group of soldiers formed up with him replied, “For Havenstahl!”

“For Druindahl,” he shouted back at them.

“For Druindahl,” they answered.

Tarturan let out a war cry as his heavy hand gave Tiegran’s shoulders a stiff pat. The crowd responded in kind. Tiegran hoped the giants could hear them. He hoped they knew Havenstahl would never surrender. As long as one man drew breath, they would fight until the Lake called them home.

Tiegran finally caught Daritus’ eye through the crowed. The general, the legend, gave him a wide smile and nodded. Tiegran shouted with all his might, “For Ouloos!”

The crowd answered, “For Ouloos!”

Then Daritus called the command, “Charge!”
