In distant times, Jon's ancestors lived in fear of the power of the elements and untamed nature. In their hearts, a longing arose for the care of someone stronger who could protect them from dangers. From this need, supernatural beings were born, but they did not bring them the desired support. Finally, from human faith and hope, Swiatowid was created – a god of immense power who quickly became cruel and demanding.

Now, Jon's tribe has turned away from the old gods and embraced faith in the God of Goodness. A river, a forest, and – above all – a Taboo separate them from the past and forgotten gods. However, curiosity and the desire to learn lead little Jon to cross the forbidden border. He enters the territory of the abandoned Swiatowid, unaware of the consequences of his actions.

What will the forgotten god demand from Jon? Where will the Stone Road lead him, full of dangers and challenges? Will Jon find answers to the questions that torment his heart? "The Loneliness of Gods" is a book that encourages reflection on the nature of faith, the power of tradition, and the inevitability of change. It is a story about growing up, searching for one's identity, and courage in making difficult decisions. A novel that remains in the reader's memory for a long time.

An ideal book for fantasy lovers who appreciate a deep message and unforgettable experiences. Recommended for both young people and adult readers who want to move to a world full of magic and mystery.
