Özet
A world of immortals living among humans. Anyone may be immortal, but there is no way to know until you die. If you are one of the very lucky few, you will live an endless life of pleasure and power, considered to be a god. Only decapitation and the rapid separation of body and head for a few days can kill an immortal.
In the southlands, a common soldier dies and is reborn, and is inducted into the world of the immortals. But the Empire has become decadent, and what he discovers there will shock him.
In the dry lands of the west, one man has set himself up as the sun god. But there is a prophecy that he will be killed by his son - and so all of his male children are killed at birth. Until his most recent wife bears a child who is nether male nor female, and is determined to protect them from sacrifice.
In the cold north, the immortal Luck - clever, tricksy, clubfooted - harbours suspicions that many of the immortals have been killed. When he intervenes in an attack on one of his fellows, he realises something new. Someone is hunting the Gods.
For there is a fourth land. They know of the other three. And they are planning their attack.
Our three heroes - damaged soldier, protective mother, clever cripple - must find a way to unite their different lands, and defend against this new enemy.

An intriguing premise... an intricate, fast-paced story... Humphreys packs gods, deicide, warring tribes and some impressive world-building into just over 300 pages.
A brilliant epic fantasy debut from a master storyteller (Sebastien de Castell)
Wonderful characters and great world-building, in Humphreys' special brand of addictive storytelling (Diana Gabaldon)
Chris Humphreys skilfully weaves together several different storylines without any feeling like they're rushed over and still manages to keep the momentum of the plot going throughout the book. It's an intriguing new look at immortality in a fantasy novel, and I highly recommend it.
Cleverly written, at times very funny, I thoroughly enjoyed this new book.
Humphreys' plot, prose, and characters give this book a sense of quality and gravity without skimping on fun and readability
Brilliant: smoothly-written, engaging, fascinating. The kid can write. The world is wonderful - I wish I'd thought of it
Instantly gripping and thoroughly unusual, this book ends on a cliffhanger which has me impatient for part two.

I like to take a chance on new authors and am so glad I did with Chris Humphrey’s Smoke in the Glass. Also I loved his reading of it. Can’t wait for the next instalment. Thoroughly engrossing and entertaining. I loved his world building with the four realms and the variety of his characters. I listened to this audiobook almost nonstop, completely immersed in this first instalment. Great characters from interesting worlds. Thank you so much Mr Humphreys and I hope I don’t have to wait too long for book 2!

Hugely enjoyable
