Ronoah Genoveffa despairs of fulfilling his spiritual identity, until he begins a cross-continental pilgrimage with an otherworldly mentor. Immersive worldbuilding and mythology meet visceral emotional case study.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>TRIPLE GOLD MEDALIST IN THE INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER BOOK AWARDS!</strong></p><p><strong>WINNER OF THE 2019 READERVIEWS AWARD FOR FANTASY!</strong></p><p><em>"Life is transformation. You change or you die."</em></p><p>Ashamed of his past and overwhelmed by his future, Ronoah Genoveffa Elizzi-denna Pilanovani feels too small for his own name. After a graceless exit from his homeland in the Acharrioni desert, his anxiety has sabotaged every attempt at redemption. Asides from a fiery devotion to his godling, the one piece of home he brought with him, he has nothing.</p><p>That is, until he meets Reilin. Beguiling, bewildering Reilin, who whisks Ronoah up into a cross-continental pilgrimage to the most sacred place on the planet. The people they encounter on the way--children of the sea, a priestess and her band of storytellers, the lonely ghosts of monsters--are grim and whimsical in equal measure. Each has their part to play in rewriting Ronoah's personal narrative.</p><p>One part fantasy travelogue, one part emotional underworld journey, <em>The Heretic's Guide to Homecoming</em> is a sumptuous, slow-burning story about stories and the way they shape our lives.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Compelling and complicated in all the right ways. . . . beautifully written, not just in mythos but also in its treatments of its characters.
