i have read the book series about 10 to 15 years ago and I can‘t remember the books/author.

Story was a farmer got surprised in the beginning as a dead man/avatar fell from the sky onto his land. as he discovered him a god (lion looking like) appeared and him his new avatar. overwhelmed he learned all the needed things as a demo-good and soon the fights against other avatars started. I remember a Mongolian like avatar was also there. He lived ob airships which looked like jellyfished who were carrying the platforms they lived on. I know quite strange, but these are the memories. Does someone know this series. About the author I am not sure. Could be European or American.
thanksnin advance!
