a b Thill, Scott. " Post-Apocalyptic Comic Godkiller Emerges as 'Illustrated Film'". Wired. October 6, 2009. While the fantasy genre is no stranger to divine characters, Kaner does something interesting with the concept by closely intertwining the Gods’ fates with humanity. Gods can only come into existence if people believe in and pray to them. The more shrines people build and the more offerings they bring, the stronger the God. This makes Kissen’s work more interesting in so far that she is more than just a killer of Gods, she is also a hunter of their symbols, and thus equally feared and despised by those who still pray to the beings of old. The world building was a huge part of what I loved most, it’s exhilaratingly atmospheric and threaded with uncertainty. I loved how vividly detailed the lore surrounding the dwindling gods were and how intrinsically linked their (and the world’s) magic was to the worship and offerings of desperate people, torn between their faith and the king’s new laws.

I absolutely adored Godkiller. This novel has everything--adventure, wonderful characters, tenderness, humor, passion. I was gripped by both the story and world building ... it is truly spellbinding." -- Elodie Harper, internationally bestselling author of the Wolf Den trilogy 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. Godkiller is a transmedia series of graphic novels, illustrated films, and novels created by filmmaker Matt Pizzolo that tells the stories of human beings caught in the crossfire of warring fallen gods.
Some were snarky and sassy, others empathetic and vulnerable. Their differences made them a motley crew and all the more beloved, to me, because of it. There were many exciting discoveries to be made about who they really were or what events had arisen in their pasts to make them the individuals they were in the book's present day and I really enjoyed exploring these aspects as their current mission also played out.

Epic and intimate, tender and sharp, Godkiller is a triumph of storytelling and the beginning of a story that I can't wait to follow." -- Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author of For the Wolf 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 has the ease of writing of a YA fantasy book, while being entirely an adult fantasy in topics and themes. Killing God With Matt Pizzolo - Bleeding Cool Comic Book, Movies and TV News and Rumors". Bleedingcool.com. 2012-07-30 . Retrieved 2013-12-30. Kissen is a breath of fresh air in today’s fantasy landscape. While the character still displays some tropey traits such as being orphaned at a young age, and consequently being a self-reliant, mulishly stubborn, hides-her-heart-behind-high-walls protagonist, she is also hella queer, knows how to fight and fights well!! ( let’s not talk about those FMC that are either too overpowered and naturally gifted at literally every single thing they do or, while said to be a great warrior, actually aren’t), disabled (the disability rep in this novel was outstanding), and the brains to know when a situation is outside her capabilities. All in all, Kissen felt very well-rounded, and I enjoyed reading her POV.
