Gods of Earth

By: Craig DeLancey

Narrated by: Nick Podehl

Against all odds, - A God has returned - to Earth.

Chance Kyrien is turning seventeen, and on this day he will be confirmed as a Puriman and learn the shape of his life to come. Young Chance is ambitious, rebellious, but also fiercely devout, and his only thoughts are about farming and wine-making - and marrying the girl he loves. But in a shocking burst of violence, Chance's dreams are shattered. Now he must survive against hellish forces to face his ultimate foe: a long-forgotten god whose destiny is intertwined with his own.

Slow to start and confusing after

I have enjoyed Nick in the past reading books but this one seemed to change locations/times without enough space so I was constantly backing up to see where we were. I listened to the last hour 4 times to get it straight. As slow as the rest of the story was it felt like the ending was rushed and did not give me enough time to track with it. I always listen while I am doing things around my day but this one required more attention than I usually have to give.

Worthwhile, but...

Gods of Earth is worth the listen, with some interesting characters, but it's not special. I recommend it, but not as a life-changer.

better the 2nd time around

listened to it a while back. not terribly impressed with either the story or the narration. However, I usually listen to stuff more than once and upon this listening I realized that the story is a lot more complex and involving than I first thought it to be. The narration is spot on. In general, a very good listen.

Pleasant Surprise!!!

Story was sort of start and stop for me. Would be very interesting then die off but overall it turned out nicely.
Nick Podehl was EXCELLENT.

Good book. Excellent performance by Nick Powel.

Book was good but left a few loose ends. The wrap up really leaves you thinking there should be more to the story....its almost like the ending was setting the ground work for a sequel.
