Born of shadow and light, Dillon is a walking impossibility. His mother is a feared necromancer. His father, a holy priest - sworn enemies by blood and creed. When the truth of his heritage is exposed, Dillon is forced from his home, his only hope lying with the father he has never met. Joined by three gifted friends, he journeys into a world where magic dazzles, but danger hides in every corner. In the glittering yet treacherous city of Brackenreach, Dillon must navigate political intrigue, ancient rivalries, and a prophecy that could shatter the fragile peace between light and dark. With enemies watching from both sides, Dillon's greatest question is not whether he can master his powers - but whether he can survive them."
