Sorin Kain And The Fifth Order

Thirteen-year-old Sorin Kain has spent his life bouncing between foster homes, haunted by dreams of parents he can't remember, and a strange door hidden in his basement. When the door finally opens, it pulls him into a secret realm ruled by ancient Orders and a Veil that protects Earth from something far worse.
But Sorin's mark-burned into his skin during the Academy's Choosing Ceremony-is unlike any ever seen. Now he's labeled a mistake, watched by the Elders, and drawn into a dangerous conspiracy to erase a forgotten Order... and the truth about his family.
With the help of two fierce allies, a scruffy outcast with too many secrets, and a girl tied to a hidden rebellion, Sorin must uncover the mystery of the Fifth Order and the traitor working within the Academy-before the Veil falls, and the universe falls with it.
Perfect for fans of Amari and the Night Brothers, The Marvellers, Harry Potter, and The Barren Grounds, this is a fast-paced portal fantasy full of cosmic wonder, ancient magic, and the power of choosing who you become.
