All 3 Books | Friday Updates [Fans of The Stormlight Archive may enjoy this book] "The world was born from nothingness... and to nothingness it may yet return." For centuries, Guardians protected the mortal realm - until the powers, and their wielders, vanished without a trace after a war that nearly shattered the world. Now, 50 years later the powers reappear in six unsuspecting youths who are thrust into a dangerous fight for survival. As chaos stirs in the kingdoms and demons claw their way into the overworld, the newly awakened Guardians must harness their powers and uncover the truth behind the reappearance of an old evil. But something doesn't add up. The deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes-and the more uncertain their path forward. Whispers of an exiled king. A god-killer. A plan that may have been centuries in the making. As destinies unravel and loyalties are tested, one question lingers: What if saving the world... means trusting the very force that could end it? An epic trilogy of gods, mortals, and fates intertwined-where things could have been set in motion long before anyone could have anticipated. For better or for worse, it's all in the hands of the Guardians now...
