Toy of the Gods

The Mommies Reviews

Would you please help me welcome Author Sonja Dewing and her book Toy of the Gods to our Christmas Gift Guide. I received a copy of Toy of the Gods in exchange for a spot inside the Guide.

You will find Sonja Dewing inside our Christmas Gift Guide Shopping for: Men. Toy of the Gods would be perfect for people who like to travel as Toy of the Gods is set in the Amazon and talks about the Incas.

If The Toy of Gods didn’t have Sex in the book we could have read it for History class as this book would have introduced us to Amazon and Incas. Which is History.

When an awakened Inca god strands a group of tourists in the Amazon, former adventurer Leslie Kicklighter must lead the group of tourists to safety, or face the ultimate consequences.

They’ll have to get past armed bandits, angry villagers, a banana plantation owner and even drunken monkeys — all while hoping the God doesn’t want any more from them.

Toy Of The Gods is a story of one woman’s heroism, and how a group of strangers band together and attempt to survive an impossible journey with plenty of action, sex, thrills, and fun.

About: Sonja Dewing

Sonja Dewing is an award-winning creative writer, a published freelance writer, and adventure seeker. Her articles have appeared in a variety of publications including Aviation Magazine, Host Magazine, and New Mexico Entertainment Magazine.

What does she know about adventure? After years of paying off debt, in 2013 she quit her job at a university, sold most of her things, got rid of her apartment, put the rest of her stuff in her dad’s garage, then traveled to Costa Rica, Panama, and Peru for seven weeks. She loved meeting new people, getting to know the Spanish language, and learning how to surf in Costa Rica.

While in Peru, she stayed in the Amazon at an eco-resort for a week. Her favorite time there was relaxing in the lobby in a hammock and watching as tiny black monkeys climbed down from the trees and went through the top of the open-air building. She admits that the Amazon was far more amazing then she could have imagined and was glad she went so she could add the sense of the jungle to her first published novel.

When she came back to the states, she traveled all over the country with the intention of finding somewhere new to live but realized she loved Albuquerque too much. She had to come back for the sunshine, mountains, and green chile.

When she made it back to Albuquerque, she found a great place to live, moved her stuff out of her dad’s garage, and set up an office in a coworking space. Inspired by other entrepreneurs, she recently opened a business to help writers through Plot Duckies.

She’s an avid hiker, backpacker, traveler and also plays roller derby with Duke City Roller Derby as ‘Author of Pain.’

When she isn’t writing her next novel or working on Plot Duckies, she’s helping entrepreneurs in Albuquerque, New Mexico as an organizer for One Million Cups, or she’s planning her next trip.
