Taidan was abandoned at birth by his mother and left in the care of his grandmother. Content with his normal way of living and not wanting to leave his Grandmother, he refuses to go to Vocans: the academy for summoners. Compelled into a war he doesn't know who to trust or who is good. Secrets that were once buried, rise when the Empire is threatened. *Fourteen years after the Second Orc War (after Fletcher's win over Khan). **You don't need to read the Summoner Trilogy books to understand this book (but you should anyway). This is a fanfic, so naturally all rights go to Taran Matharu, the author of The Summoner Trilogy. ***If you can't handle same-sex romance I suggest you find another story to read.
