Origins: Origins of the Gods: Book I Kindle Edition
Fae marry for love. Angels marry for politics.
Véa has dreamed of becoming queen of the fae since she was a girl. But once she finally takes her throne, and her world is under attack by ruthless soul eaters, she's forced to watch it burn or marry a man she hates—Lux, king of angels.
Nix is the half Elvan, half angel bastard prince of both the elvan nation and the land of the angels. When he takes his place as hand of the king beneath his brother, it becomes his duty to guard the new queen, Véa.
Will Véa assimilate into a world where women are traded like cattle, or will she steal Lux's world out from under him with his brother at her side?
If you liked Game of Thrones and From Blood and Ash, you'll love the sexy, magical world of Origins of the Gods.
Intended only for mature audiences.
◆This series can be read on its own but is a distant prequel series to the urban fantasy Eluding Destiny series. (As in, thousands of years in the past.)◆

About the author

Charlie is a... Okay, talking about myself in third person is weird.
Nice to meet you, and thanks for clicking on my page! My name's Charlie Nottingham, and my whole world revolves around fantasy. When I'm not writing a new book, I'm either hanging out with my dogs, talking with my fans online, or reading some amazing urban fantasy, paranormal romance, or fantasy romance series (always a series, never a stand-alone, because I hate to fall for a character and never see them again), or re-watching some Buffy or Supernatural.
I'm so grateful for the opportunity to share the worlds I've created with the world around me! Truly, telling stories, reading them, absorbing fiction is what I live for.
If you like my work and would like to sign up for my bi-weekly newsletter, here's a link to my website! You can also find my prequel on there (for free, always for free). https://www.charlienottingham1224.com/

- Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2022How can I adequately describe how excited I have been to finally get to the origin story of my favorite characters? This was everything I wanted and then some! I loved the slow build up of Vea and Nix’s relationship and seeing how they fell in love. And my hatred of Lux was confirmed a million times over. I knew he was evil but holy wow, he’s a true villain. This book was chonky and absolutely filled with the backstory I had been dying to read more of and I loved it so much!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2022I don’t usually leave reviews but for this one I had to! This book was amazing! Saw the author talking about it on booktok and was curious enough to give it a shot. Hooked me right from the start and I can’t wait to dive into the rest. The characters were so interesting and not just the main ones. I was also fascinated by how the world and systems were set up and seeing the similarities to our own society currently.
Definitely a recommended read.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2021Charlie does amazing world building in the epic fantasy. Morduaine is my ideal world. I love Vea, the relationships she builds with those around her and the way she loves the people of her world. There were a few phrases that were over used and it took me a minute to figure out what phasing was, aside from that I loved this book and the story, can’t wait to read the next book.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2021Angels, fae, immortality, and war, OH MY! You know the magic system and world-building is on point when you are telling your not-bookish father about the book, and he goes “sounds very Tolkien”. YES!! This is by far one of my favorite reads of 2021.
The story starts out with a flashback to the past, showing a great mistake that sets events in motion for Véa and Nix—two children that are destined to grow up and sacrifice their own happiness for the good of their kingdoms. Forbidden love, old rivalries, and ancient magic make this tale perfect for anyone who loves an epic story of destiny and power interwoven with a slow burn romance.
This book is also a long-distance prequel to another of Charlie’s series… and we know how satisfying it is to read interconnected stories!!
If you’ve read From Blood and Ash, Lord of the Rings, or A Court of Thorns and Roses, you should give this a shot. I have no regrets except that I can’t force all of Booktok to read this :)
Cannot wait for the sequel in January—counting down the days since that cliffhanger at the end!!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2022I really enjoyed reading this. The world and character building was fantastic. It was a journey I was glad to read.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2022I absolutely love the story I really look forward to the other books. Loving and hating the characters is 1 of my favorite things about About reading and it's definitely gives you a lot of love and hate. Can't wait to see where this goes next.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2021This book was more than I thought it would be. At times it seems like we aren't going any where then all the sudden all the set up is there. This is like fantasy meets Reign. Love it
I received an ARC for an honesty review
- Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2021I dont know where to start the first couple chapters are in like 3rd person or something I almost stopped reading but i didnt!! An boy am i glad i didnt. This is a perfect book to lose yourself in. Véa ends up married to a monster but I have a feeling in the next book that gets fixed! On to the next in the series! You should give this book a read by the end you love the characters!
