Falled Gods

Fallen Gods by Rachel Van Dyken Pre-Order December 2nd 2025

They said the Gods were myths. That Giants were just stories whispered around dying fires. They lied.

The old Gods aren’t dead—they’re only sleeping, trapped in mortal bodies scattered across the world, waiting for the one spark strong enough to wake them. And my father, the most ruthless of them all, raised me to be that spark. To obey. To bleed. To become his blade.

My mission is simple: infiltrate Endir University—a prestigious academy built on ancient bloodlines, magic, and dangerous secrets—and steal back Mjolnir, the legendary hammer capable of breaking the world wide open. If I fail, the people I love will pay in blood.

What he didn’t anticipate was Aric Erikson.

Heir to my enemy. Ice-cold. Untouchable. And the one person I can’t risk wanting.
Aric has spent his life building walls no one can climb, yet the more I’m ordered to unravel him, the harder it becomes to remember where my father’s lies end and my own desires begin.

With a war between Gods looming and fate tightening its grip, I’m left standing between a destiny I never chose and a man who could ruin everything—or save it. If I’m the spark, maybe he’s the fuse.

And when the Gods wake, they’re not coming back peacefully.

Perfect for fans of dark academia, mythology-infused fantasy romance, and slow-burn, high-stakes tension, Fallen Gods delivers danger, divine power, and a forbidden love that could change the world.
