About this audiobook
Each soul must carve its path through blood and smoke. That’s the world our king has wrought.
When Kayn’s sanctuary is attacked, he fails to save those he loves. With his friend’s dying breath, he swears to find the one companion still missing. To keep that vow, he must step into the very world he once dreaded. And become strong enough to survive it.
His path collides with the noble houses, where lives burn away in smoke for a fleeting taste of power.
There, Malina, heir to one such house, would rather lose herself in books and wine than courtly games. But when an attempt on her life shatters her illusions, she’s forced to reach for power—or be consumed by it.
Whoever seeks power must bleed. Can Kayn and Malina escape this fate, or will they lose themselves in their pursuit?
A cruel, unforgiving world. Every choice is difficult. Every deed carries a weight of moral ambiguity.
