The Bloodsworn Trilogy (Complete Series by John Gwynne)

The Bloodsworn Trilogy is an epic fantasy series set in a world shaped by fallen gods, ancient prophecies, and unrelenting violence. Long after the gods destroyed one another in a cataclysmic war, their bones still litter the land and their power lingers, waiting to be claimed.

The story follows multiple characters from different walks of life, all drawn into a looming conflict as rumors spread that the gods may not be as dead as the world believes. Bound by blood oaths, vengeance, and destiny, warriors, outlaws, and rulers alike are forced to confront the cost of power and the weight of legend.

The series is known for its fast-paced action, gritty combat, morally complex characters, and rich mythological world-building rooted in Norse lore.
