Below, white text: “There are stories that stay with you forever and The Gods Must Burn is one of them. The mythology is so layered and rich, the romance is angsty and soaring and epic, and T.R. Moore’s prose is gorgeous and lyrical, yet unflinching—the result is a true masterpiece. This book tore my heart out and put it back together again and it was an honor.” — Thea Guanzon, New York Times and #1 international bestselling author The Hurricane Wars
