The gods of the continent of Bulikov were killed decades ago. But walking through the city, spy Shara Thivani discovers that the divine isn't quite as dead as everyone believes. A fantasy murder mystery set in a post-colonial world where the colonizers killed the colonized's gods โ and the theological rubble is still dangerous.
Clean โ political fantasy.

Yes โ the Divine Cities trilogy.
Central and thoughtfully handled โ the politics enhance the fantasy.
Works as one but the trilogy is worth completing.
