I wasn't sure what to think when I started reading my free advance copy of Risen Gods, the first collaboration between authors J.F. Penn and J. Thorn, but, the time I was one chapter in, I was hooked. As a big fan of J.F. Penn's ARKANE series and someone who's been reading her books since the very beginning, I was a bit skeptical of this seeming change of direction for Ms. Penn, but Risen Gods turned out to be every bit as good as her earlier works, if not better. I've always loved the way Joanna can make a scene come to life in my mind as a reader and this book didn't disappoint. While I'm not as familiar with the works of J. Thorn, Risen Gods was so well written that you'd think they've been working together for years. The story kept me enthralled from digital cover to cover and now I can hardly remember the reasons for my skepticism. Whether you're a fan of either author or not, or whether you've read anything by either author or not, this book will make you want to come back for more. Now if I can only convince my wife we need to take our next vacation in New Zealand!

Great Supernatural thriller set in New Zealand By Godiva 2000 This book is set in New Zealand, and starts with the 2 main characters (Ben & Lucy) being caught in a tsunami which strikes the coast of South Island, causing huge damage to the coast.This tsunami was apparently caused by an underwater earthquake, but as the story unfolds it becomes apparent that there is a more supernatural cause, the ancient gods of the Maori people.Ben, who is a Maori and Lucy, a white New Zealander, are separated and each comes in to possession of an amulet. These amulets need to be bought together and offered as a sacrifice to appease the gods and save the whole of New Zealand.There is a nice symmetry that Ben gets assistance from a white girl called Gina, and Lucy ties up with a Maori called Rangi. Both pairs face edge-of-the-seat adventures as they head north and finally come together for the final push to the place where they must offer the amulets.I have read all of Joanna Penn's books, but am not familiar with J. Thorn's work (yet), so can't comment on how this compares to his other work. But this book certainly won't disappoint Joanna's fans, as it contains her usual mix of great characters, fantastic plot, with the usual dark moments, evocative descriptions of locations and huge amounts of research. I have a working knowledge of Norse and Greek mythology, but didn't realise that the Maori mythology was so rich, it has inspired me to find out more.Overall a great book which I enjoyed so much that I managed to finish it in double quick time, as I found it so difficult to put down. If there is one, very small criticism, it is that the glossary of Maori words is at the back, it would be useful if it was at the front so that it is more obvious.I did receive a free advance copy of this in return for an honest review, but I liked it so much that I bought it anyway!
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A fantasy set in New Zealand with Maori gods! Awesome! By Diana in SC I initially bought the ebook, and then I won a free copy of the audiobook from one of the authors in return for an honest review. First, I want to comment on the narration. The narrator did a good, solid performance with really good pacing and excellent pronunciation of unusual Maori words. He has a pleasant, slightly gravelly voice. I have one minor complaint that when he is not doing characters' voices he sometimes sounds a too clinical and slightly monotone as if he is reading the nightly news. He does not attempt any New Zealand accents (he sounds American all the time), but I was fine with that. He is as good at women's voices as he is with men's, and he differentiates various characters' voices well. In addiction, the production was almost always very good. However, once in a while, I can tell there are one-sentence-long sections that I can tell were recorded later in a different location that has an unpleasant echo. This book is an imaginative thrill ride that I loved. It is a natural disaster story mixed with thrilling action and fascinating fantasy based on the religion of the Maori, the native New Zealand culture. If, like me, you love Neil Gaiman's "American Gods", then try this action-packed novella-length story of several people trying to save New Zealand after the sleeping Gods rise up and cause all kinds of natural disasters. There are earthquakes, a tsunami, volcanic eruptions, and storms! It is also a cool travelog of all the most famous places in New Zealand from Auckland all the way to the far northern tip. Unlike crappy action movies, the action in this book makes sense, and the characters' escapes from death sound plausible to me. FYI, there are no sex scenes, but I would rate it PG-13 or R because of some bloody injuries and some occasional chilling violence. Thankfully, there are no love triangles and very little romance. This is a highly enjoyable fantasy novella and audiobook. I have told all of my finds who like fantasy that they really need to try it.
