Description
In this fantasy story, the Gods have disappeared for over 30 years and divers search for some of their remains. Hark finds a divine heart to save his best friend Jelt, but the divine does not seem to mingle well with the human. The book follows two male best friends, but it also features fierce female characters and diverse races and ethnicities (though race has little significance and characters are only slightly described physically). There is also respectful representation of deaf people and hearing signers.
