Godkiller

The first act was difficult to get through as it seemed to struggle to find the balance between world-building, character development, and establishing any sort of intriguing plot. At the end of the day, the first third brought ‘the travellers' together, the second third was their journey to the final destination, and the last third was the big showdown they had been driving towards - all of it somewhat standard fare for the genre. While the end was solid and cinematic, the rest of the prose felt a bit clunky and the mythology came through as a weird mix of being too broad and yet too detailed at the same time.
