The Never Tilting World (Never Tilting World, #1)

by Rin Chupeco

[paperbackjedi]

The Never Tilting World is a gripping fantasy novel about duality in all its forms. After the world literally breaks in two, part of it is encased in eternal darkness, situated in a wintry seascape full of monsters and unpredictable storms while the other part is plagued by a never retreating sun in a desert landscape also full of monsters, cannibals, and devastating sandstorms. Twin sisters are being trained to rule these worlds, each believing the other is dead, but both believing they can bring the world back to the way it was. They set out in separate quests with their own crews and try their hand at defying their fate... or perhaps, cementing it.

Rin Chupeco weaves a spectacular tale of light and darkness and the things we choose to embrace. The story plays out in grand scale across horrific and beautiful landscapes of both nature and the soul itself complete with monsters that take many shapes. It asks the question what would you give up if you could have the power to remake the world? How do you navigate such grand destinies and stay your course as yourself in the face of your sacrifices? Told in alternating viewpoints from each of the twin goddesses determined to right the wrongs and the two people who choose to fight with and love them, The Never Tilting World is an incredible journey from start to finish that will leave you breathless with anticipation and fear for the future. Readers will be eagerly anticipating the next installment of this truly memorable quest full of prophecy, love, heartbreak, and a knock down drag out fight for everything you hold dear.
