Reader Reviews
Lesser Gods: Reckoning delivers a sharp blend of dark humor and epic fantasy, following a reluctant necromancer god who would rather avoid destiny than end the world. Ash Darkscream is a compelling, emotionally grounded protagonist whose struggle between obligation and free will gives the story real weight. The supporting cast especially the trouble-magnet faun Lunette and the sardonic reaper Leroy adds heart and humor that balance the darker themes. With fast-paced action, imaginative mythology
Lesser Gods: Reckoning by Alex Frey delivers a strong modern fantasy hook with mythological scale and character driven tension. The premise of a reluctant lesser god of necromancy pressured into triggering an apocalypse creates immediate narrative conflict, while the supporting cast especially the faun companion and reaper roommate, adds tonal contrast and dark humor balance. The blend of divine politics, existential rebellion, and chaotic adventure positions the story well for readers who enjoy
This is such a fun, fast-paced fantasy story! Ash is supposed to release the zombie apocalypse but keeps pushing it off until he gets a new task to do. He teams up with friends to go on a journey that they'll never expect. I liked reading about the characters and their backstories through the present day and past events. I absolutely loved the pictures throughout the book of the various characters and that the Author used this font for people with dyslexia and vision issues . I can't wait for bo
