The Return of the Living God (Serpent Scion #1)

Serpent Scion: Return of the Living God:
The scion to the House of the Serpent Coil has arisen from the silence of the shadows to reclaim his throne. But the people of the Empire fear the Serpent Coil because of the brutal reign of his father before him and resist his return.
-
14 years have passed since the murder of the god King of the House of the Serpent Coil, ruler of the Anandrañ Empire and God of the world. 14 years have passed since the reign of the gods of the Thousand and One Pantheon in the institution of the All Court. 14 years since God walked the Earth.
14 years since they have been ruled by another who has seated himself as the new God of the world. They call him The Reacher, of the House of the Raven's Reach, and the people have crowned him their Savior from the brutality of the Serpent god King and the excesses of the gods of the All Court.
But they are blind to a slowly growing evil, making its way back into the world through the cracks left by the demise of the god King. An old world evil awakens. And only God can stop its cankerous encroachment.
This is where this story begins.
For a scion has arisen out of the House of the Serpent Coil to reclaim his throne, uproot this cankerous evil and reunite the Empire once again.
God is returning.
Will the Empire welcome him?
