Books like King's folly by Jill Williamson
In the imaginary land of Armania, the king attributes the relentless volcanic eruptions, sinkholes, and earthquakes to the gods’ anger, a belief fueled by the populace’s worship of the horned deity Barthos. His son, Prince Wilek—Armania’s diligent First Arm—challenges his father’s superstition. Sent to investigate a desperate plea from Farway, Wilek discovers that the town’s disappearance is only the start of a far more cataclysmic crisis. Racing against time, he must save his people and the world itself before the land gives way.
