What if the boy nobody chose was the one the universe was waiting for?
153 years after World War Three scorched the earth, humanity didn't go extinct.
It got worse.
Nations now sacrifice their strongest men in a brutal death sport called the Red Sport — fight or your country starves. My story is set in this world. A world where water is more precious than blood, where ancient Yoruba mythology collides with space colonies and political war, and where an artifact older than memory is about to fall into the hands of the last person anyone expected.
Not the warrior.
Not the genius.
The dying boy nobody trained.
His name is Igbayilola. He was born invisible. He will not die that way.
