Publisher's Summary

From the Aurealis Award-winning author of A Crucible of Souls.

In a world devastated by a series of cataclysms over millennia, where the followers of different gods vie for ascendancy, mankind carves out a precarious existence among the remnants of a desolated past. Cities and civilizations are built atop mysterious and oftentimes menacing ruins, and the unforgiving wilderness beyond is filled with inhuman creatures and races from before the dawn of history. Sorcery is seen by some as a gift of the gods and by others as their curse. And the demon-ravaged past has all but been forgotten.

As a secret cabal schemes to awaken an evil thought defeated millennia ago, the lives of three unlikely heroes are fated to converge:

Aldric, a veteran priest and sorcerer, who seeks acceptance from the church that shuns him. On the brink of their approval, he receives a mission that brings him face to face with a long-buried evil.

Niklaus, master swordsman and slave to his goddess, who plots to split the veil between life and death and ascend to become her equal.

Kurio, the runaway daughter of a noble family, now turned to thievery, who stumbles across a disturbing secret that binds her future to infernal designs.

Drawn toward a horrifying endgame by an unknown force, Aldric, Niklaus, and Kurio find themselves in a battle not only for their lives but for the beliefs that have come to define them.

A wrong decision, an overreaching ambition, or the failure of an already tormented faith is all it will take to plunge mankind into an eternal dark.

Great new series!

I really enjoyed this new series. The magic system was new and innovative, while the world was rich and deep.
The story follows three main characters: Kurio, a thief who is more than she seems, Aldric a well meaning but naive young sorcerer also Touched by his God and Niklaus. Niklaus is a centuries old killer and ( for lack of a better term) odd job man for his own dark God.
Despite his callousness, I found Niklaus to be the most interesting. Tortured by his endless servitude, he aspires to become a God himself to forever be with his Goddess.
Although Kurio felt a little under used, I thought the characters were well fleshed out and different.
The addition of at least one non human character and it's connection to the lost history of the world make me want to see more of them and the past.
All in all, this one is definitely worth a try!
