The Wrath of Order by Glen Dahlgren follows Eve after the fall of the gods, as she tries to settle into a routine life at the temple of Charity. Her life turns again when she discovers that some orphans can enter the Dreaming, a strange place shaped by imagination. While trying to teach them how to stay safe, she slips into the real Dreaming herself and realizes that Galen, now the God of Chaos, might still be out there. This pushes her into a mix of new dangers involving hidden temples, ancient gods, and a rising threat tied to both Chaos and Order. With the world changing once more, Eve and Galen each face choices that could change everything for them and the children caught in the middle. Whether either of them finds what they’ve been searching for depends on how they move forward in a world still full of uncertainty.
Reading Glen Dahlgren's The Wrath of Order gave me the feeling of stepping into a familiar world that has more layers than before. It merges classic fantasy with a structure that feels like moving through an adventure, where each challenge reveals new background or motives. The writing is easy to follow, and the settings range from quiet temple life to the unpredictable Dreaming. Eve’s growth shows in how she carries her past while trying to find her place in a world still healing from a crucial shift. Galen’s presence adds an exciting pull to the story, particularly since his character becomes entangled with the dangers that lie ahead for them all. There’s a good mix of magic, strained alliances, and threats rising on both sides. Readers who enjoy fantasy with strong lore, shifting power struggles, and characters rebuilding their lives will appreciate this story.
