Darkness Comes (The Second Book of the Small Gods) Bruce Blake

Darkness and shadow creep across the land, a living statue stalking a mythical creature to sacrifice its life and return the Small Gods to their glory. No one can stop the foul golem from its destined path of destruction. The prince lies dying, his sister doubts her role in humankind's salvation, and the Barren Mother wanders blind and alone, praying for her agony to end. Meanwhile, the Evenstar watches from above as each day brings him and the other Small Gods closer to the day their ancient evil awakes and they can bring about the fall of man. How helpless is the plight of man in a battle against the gods.
