About this deal

A richly rendered world . . . Kaner writes action that's both fun and intelligible--no mean feat--while keeping the story moving forward nicely. If "The Last of Us" didn't slake your thirst for stories of a grizzled fighter taking a tough kid on the road, then Godkiller should be your jam." -- The Washington Post Set in the future after an economic collapse, a nuclear holy war and an alien invasion, Godkiller: Walk Among Us follows orphan Tommy as he searches for a new heart for his ill sister, Lucy. Pizzolo also wrote the serialized, pre-apocalyptic prequel Godkiller: Silent War, an urban fantasy novel series which debuted as episodic e-books & audiobooks on the special features of the Godkiller: Walk Among Us DVDs in October 2009. [14]

I had this book in my TBR for a while, then I saw a premise that went “You’re not welcome here, godkiller.” and I knew I had to read it. And thank gods I did because it was awesome. It was literally like The Witcher, without the misogyny of course. I guess that’s one of the reasons I loved it so much. (I quit reading The Witcher series at the fourth book because as a woman, the author’s view of women made me very uncomfortable.) There’s a lot going on in Pizzolo’s wonderfully bizarre story, but its most distinctive feature is a barren, nearly dead world.

Hallam, Scott. " Halo-8 Entertainment Introduces Godkiller: Tomorrow's Ashes Digital Comics Mini-Series". Dread Central. January 18, 2012. The disability rep was really good (Kissen has a prosthesis) and it was really refreshing to see the representation in a main (and incredibly pivotal to the narrative) character too as opposed to just a minor or supporting character.

Pizzolo, Giberson and actresses Danielle Harris and Tiffany Shepis presented two exclusive preview clips of the Godkiller illustrated film at Fangoria's Weekend of Horrors in Los Angeles on April 18, 2009. [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] Inara and Kissen’s relationship is so beautiful to behold and watch as it grows and contorts, fitting around old wounds and scars, shifting amongst their newfound care and shared resilience. It’s a relationship that parallels and reminds me of Geralt and Ciri in the Witcher, a bond of family that refuses to break. Devastating and triumphant, Godkiller will eviscerate you." -- Tasha Suri, award-winning author of The Jasmine Throne Johnston, Rich (2021-07-07). "PrintWatch: Skybound X #1 Godkiller: Tomorrow's Ashes #1 Second Prints". Bleeding Cool News And Rumors . Retrieved 2021-07-10. Godkiller takes the fabric of epic fantasy and stitches it into a clean, tense, precisely measured and neatly designed tapestry. ... This is a very strong debut, offering compelling characters whose problems mount from the ordinary to the epic in the space of the novel."In November 2014, it was reported that Godkiller would be rebooted as an animated feature film trilogy directed by Pizzolo. [7] In January 2012, the first issue of the Godkiller 2: Tomorrow's Ashes comic book series debuted as a digital series. [3] [4] [5] It’s a very vigorous, violent, and fraught climax, let’s just say. And recalls, satisfyingly and unexpectedly, elements from the prologue. This ended up being a journey story, which can be a hard sell for me. A knight turned baker, a lady Godkiller, and a little girl attached to a small god end up thrown together on a dangerous journey to a forbidden city. The prologue grabbed my attention immediately and there were elements of the story that liked. The complexities of gods and faith as something with great potential for both good and evil is interesting.

Moore, Debi. "Halo-8 Announces New Comic Book/Illustrated Film The Long Knives". Dread Central. April 7, 2010. A wonderful, gritty, explosively violent, and beautifully realized debut built around a mismatched trio's classic quest." -- Daily Mail (UK)Inara is a young girl with mysterious powers and a magical friend (who, I would say, definitely counts as an animal companion). She wants answers to the secrets she has had to keep for years, she wants to understand her place in the world and perhaps create a new one. She goes to Kissen for answers and discovers more than she ever would have guessed.

Yamato, Jen (November 6, 2014). ‘Godkiller’ Post-Apocalyptic Comic Bound For New Animated Trilogy. Deadline Hollywood. Kit Griffiths' dynamic narration, which enriches the story's emotions, pace and tension, grabbed my attention within seconds. Also, the different voices used for the characters bring them to life and strengthen the listening experience.

The enemies-to-lover trope is skillfully used here, with the characters initially suspicious of each other but then gradually trusting and opening up to one another. As their walls come down, moments of attraction eventually lead to a passion that mostly feels natural and cute. Moore, Debi (2009-10-06). "Halo-8 Unveils New Godkiller Clip". Dreadcentral.com .
