For fans of Elden Ring, The Malazan Book of the Fallen, and Joe Abercrombie comes a debut, post-apocalyptic epic sure to reel you in.

Relics of the past scattered. A hero broken. A world on the brink.

A paragon left for dead, Alevist Lightseeker sought peace—but peace had other plans. Thirty four years past, the blade he buried must rise again. As he hunts the ones who shattered his world, another exile awakens—Erevayn. A man drunk on grief and bound by blood. A minstrel must bring the two together in a war against a rising ill fate.

Viyala, a lost love, unexpectedly returns and sparks a fire in Erevayn—but will it be enough to quell his thirst for vengeance? And will the world unfolding around her offer the chance for the future she has long desired?

Salasmir, Blade of the Reckoning, must answer the call of duty once again.

Hayde and Neera, twins of the Stained, hunt for sacred artifacts for their false king. Steyvin and Ilatu must travel across the Sundered Sea in order to do the same, but for their once wise father—who holds damning secrets of his own.

The Tears awaken—and call to the broken. Two men, one path, and no Gods left to help. Some martyrs stay dead. Others—become legend.
