The Storyteller
Dez Udezue
Dez Udezue writes stories about gods who bleed, humans who rise, and the thin line between salvation and destruction. His work draws deeply from African mythology, weaving ancient traditions with epic fantasy.
The Eden Ruse began as a question: what happens when a slave gains the power of gods? The answer became a trilogy that explores power, sacrifice, and the cost of freedom.
When not writing, Dez can be found researching obscure mythologies, arguing about fantasy worldbuilding, or plotting the downfall of fictional empires.

“I write the stories I needed to read growing up—epics where people who look like me are the heroes, the villains, and everyone in between.”— Dez Udezue
