Tales From Across the Domains: A Cruel Gods Short Story Collection (The Cruel Gods) Kindle Edition

by Trudie Skies (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
5.0 out of 5 stars 4 ratings
Apostates, misfits, rebels, and sinners. What do they have in common? They all desire freedom to choose their own path in defiance of the gods who own their souls.

From an underwater domed city to perilous jungles, volcanic cabaret theaters, mushroom forests, and beyond, travel across twelve unique domains and learn of mortal life under the gods' watchful eyes. Your journey begins in Chime, a steam-powered city that connects each domain through a magical portal that changes at the turn of the hour.

Wardens are on hand to guide you on your journey, but be careful—not all domains are safe to traverse, and not all are what they seem.

Tales From Across the Domains is a collection of fifteen short stories set within The Cruel Gods world—a gaslamp fantasy featuring magical portals, gothic cosmic deities, quaint Britishisms, and steampunk vibes. These short stories can be read at any point during the series and contain strong language and mature themes that some readers may find disturbing.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect introduction to the world of The Cruel Gods
    Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2023
    I beta read this short story collection and found it thoroughly entertaining, enjoyable, and magical. Trudie Skies has created a fabulous world that fans of Adult-oriented fantasy and steampunk/gaslamp ought to immerse themselves into. This collection is particularly perfect as an introduction to this world for readers who have yet to dive into the main series. The world is one with some dark and disturbing content, so be aware. The world is also queernormative and I would encourage any people looking for LGBTQ+ content to give this a go.
