So i read a two part book series a few years ago and i can't for the life of me remember the author name or the name of the book.
The book was about a boy who died while in a fish-hunting ritual, and after he died a goddess saved him and brought him back to life, however she sent him to the land. He meets up with a great army general who becomes somewhat of a father figure to him. Lots of other stuff but i dont want to go into too much detail just in case anyone else wants to read this book.
