--
He hears voices. He wields shadows. He doesn't know which one will consume him first.
Zeriel was never meant to lead. He was the Te Et Sha's lowest-ranked assassin-a tool forged to obey, not to question. But when the world burns and power finds him anyway, he's left with a choice no one ever offered him before: become the weapon they fear-or the leader they never saw coming.
Now hunted by his own kind, tormented by memories he can't escape, and caught in a rising war, Zeriel must master powers he never asked for and reckon with a past that's more monstrous than the enemies he's trying to defeat.
But some nightmares don't want to stay buried. And some monsters don't wait in the dark.
You don't escape the dark. You survive it-or you become it.
