Every twenty years, the Ash moon rises... and the marked are taken.
When Kaelen wakes to find a black wing seared into his back, his life is no longer his own. Torn from his cell in the dead of night, he is thrust into a world of trials where strength means survival and failure means never coming home.
But the Ash Moon does not mark without purpose. It often demands more than the Chosen are willing to give.

AshBorn
ASHBORN The world ended in fire, and the ashes learned to breathe. Two centuries after the Cataclysm, humanity hides inside fortress-cities called Wards, surrounded by wastelands where storms twist flesh and memory into monsters. Those who step outside rarely come back. Those who do aren't quite human anymore. Kael Thorne is one of them. Once a soldier, now a Reclaimer-a man cursed to survive the very storm that killed his wife. His veins glow with crimson light, his memories fading with every battle. When he finds a fragment of her voice echoing from the ruins, he ventures into the Ashlands to find the truth-or die trying. With him travels a crew of broken souls: a sniper who lost her faith, an engineer haunted by the machines he builds, and a girl born of the storm itself. Together they cross cities turned to glass and rivers that burn black, hunted by the zealots of a scientist-turned-goddess whose experiments shattered the world. At the heart of the storm lies the Crown of Ash, where the final war waits-a battle between memory and evolution, love and oblivion. Kael must choose whether to save the world that destroyed him... or become the god who remakes it. Ashborn is a dark action-adventure of survival, identity, and rebirth-where every fight burns away a little more of the soul, and even monsters remember what it means to be human
