Look to the hills with dread: Salmmonaksa has arrived. His armies swarm like a plague of locusts. As the emperor prepares for his final assault, the Home City trembles. Overrun by desperate refugees, the monarchs have gathered to plot their defence. High King Eldilin is back at the helm, but there's no food and no answers.
Princess Kathryn has not given up hope. Lying on a cot in her room is the man destined to save the realm. They desperately need him, and for the prophecies to prove themselves true, but he will not wake no matter how much she prays. Even if he did, he cannot do it alone. Many more will die, that is certain.
The Mark of the Unseen God is the final instalment of the Markulian Prophecies, a refreshingly original tale set in a breathtaking medieval world. To rid realm of evil, everything will be required. There is no peace without sacrifice, and no love without loss. May who they are and what they have be enough.

Excerpt from The Mark of the Unseen God
‘There was a moment yesterday when he almost looked happy,’ she said, picturing her brother’s face. ‘He stepped off that carriage with you by his side. There was vigour there. Then he saw me, and the old Eldilin returned. Queen, I don’t know what you did to him out there through the winter, but he’s going to need more of it.’
‘All I did was love him, as a good wife should. Together we forgot about the world and its problems, if only for a moment.’ Kathryn laughed. This new sister of hers was a ray of sunshine amidst the storms. ‘Knowing my brother, that is a prodigious feat you accomplished.’
Cheeks reddening, Jaithe brushed the compliment aside. ‘Underneath all that self-loathing and responsibility, there’s a pleasant man in there. One who I’ve enjoyed getting to know.’
‘Oh, that’s beautiful.’ Kathryn hugged her new family. Taken aback, it took a moment for Jaithe to relax and return the embrace. ‘I’m so glad he found someone who sees him as I do. Your presence in our lives is Manfred’s parting gift. I have a feeling you’ll be the centrepiece of his legacy.’
‘Wow.’ Now it was Jaithe’s turn to fight back emotion. ‘And to think I had been nervous to meet you. Eldilin was right, you’re the kindest person in the kingdom.’
Kathryn laughed. ‘And don’t you forget it.’

My Thoughts on The Mark of the Unseen God
The Mark of the Unseen God by Benjamin Patterson, the third and final book in The Markulian Prophecies, continues the saga packed with intricate world-building, engaging storylines, and loads of action. Patterson blends science fiction, fantasy, and great storytelling to create a believable universe.
The novel takes us even deeper into the mysteries of the Markulian Prophecies before we reach the conclusion. The pacing keeps you engaged, and the stakes feel higher than ever. There are a few instances where minor mistakes pulled me out of the story, but that in no way diminishes the power of the tale.
For fans of this series, The Mark of the Unseen God is a satisfying, thought-provoking book that challenges your senses while keeping the action front and center. If you love epic storytelling with a philosophical edge, this one’s for you.
*As always, I recommend reading a series in the book order the author provides to gain the most understanding and enjoyment.
I received a copy of the book for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.

About Benjamin Patterson
Benjamin Patterson lives in North Queensland, Australia with his wife and four children. When not writing, arguing with pilots or volunteering, he's battling a life-controlling addiction to sport, an addiction his poor wife has discovered is easily passed from father to sons.
The Mark of the Unseen God completes his first fantasy trilogy. He hopes you enjoyed reading it as much as he enjoyed writing it. Writing is not easy. Without the encouragement of friends and family, the series would never have made it to print.
Though the series has sold well, Benjamin remains about one million book sales short of his goal. You can help him fulfill his goal, and encourage him to finish his next writing project, by writing rave reviews in every forum available and catching up with him on the sites listed below.
