Yongo invigorates the epic fantasy genre with his original and accomplished voice in the striking and throroughly enjoyable Lost Gods.
- Adrian Tchaikovsky, Arthur C Clarke Award-winning author of Children of Time

Fast-paced and intriguing... with an African inspired setting that makes a refreshing change.
- Anna Smith Spark, author of The Court of Broken Knives

Lost Gods is a fully immersive experience which made me a fan again. It made me seriously take my time, soak in its prose, get lost in this fully realized, rich and vital world, and get whisked along in its adventure. Micah Yongo pays respect to his elders, like Charles Saunders, while defining a space for himself in the pantheon of great sword & sorcery (sword & soul!). He is a griot, a true storyteller, coming into his own.
- Maurice Broaddus, author of the Knights of Breton Court trilogy and The Usual Suspects

Lost Gods is a tense, complex fantasy thriller that keeps the reader guessing until the very end.
- Mike Brooks, author of the Keiko series

Lost Gods is fresh, fierce, and lush with inspiration from the lands and mythology of ancient Africa and the Middle East.
- Cameron Johnston, author of The Traitor God

There's a lot of lore here, beneath the skin, and for lore junkies like me, that's pretty much irresistible. So a big thumbs up from me, and I'm going to keep an eye on Micah's career.
- This is My World

It's rare for a book to grab me from the get-go quite like Lost Gods did.
- Alan Brenik

Read this book for four hours nonstop... I can't wait to see what Yongo is going to reveal next.
- Angry Elves

A wonderful introduction to a new world, in which there is so much going on, and so much more to learn and explore. I happily give 4.5 hoots and look forward to Yongo's next book!
