Sanctuary (Roman’s Chronicles, #1)

by Ilona Andrews

“People don’t like death. It scares them, so they call Chernobog evil. Winter is hard, so they call Morena evil. Disease and sickness are cruel and unforgiving, so they call Troyan the Healer, a Nav god, evil because sometimes no matter how much you pray to him, he doesn’t answer. But we are crops, Finn. We must grow, thrive, flourish, and die, to make room for other living creatures.

Life is fundamentally spiritual, nature is unknowable, and none of us have a monopoly on the truth.”
