Publisher Description

The realm of Brynth is dying—ravaged by famine, disease, and unspeakable monsters. In the midst of the ruin, a young monk discovers a power he was never meant to wield.

Aldous Weaver never sought greatness. But when forbidden magic awakens within him—leaving devastation in its path—he's condemned to death by the very people he once served.

Fate offers him an unlikely escape: team up with Theron Ward, a cynical monster hunter, and Kendrick the Cold, a battle-hardened fugitive with a cursed past. Together, they must confront the rising darkness—or be devoured by it.

As enemies close in and dark forces rise, Aldous must master his deadly gift—or doom the realm he once vowed to protect.

Perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie, Glen Cook, and grimdark fantasy packed with monsters, magic, and brutal battles.
