She carries a sword that won’t obey, a bloodline she can’t escape, and a war that could tear two worlds apart.
Rye never asked to be a hero. Born part human, part Veyruun, she lives in hiding on the edges of a kingdom that fears her kind. But when creatures from the wild realm of Kaelthar break through the sky and begin their hunt, her secret is exposed—and so is the power buried deep inside her.
As two worlds prepare for war, Rye is thrown into the center of the storm, armed with a blade that glows but won’t yield, and questions no one dares to answer.
But something else is watching. A third world. A hidden one. And its people are not here to pick sides—they’re here to end everything.
The Veil is thinning. The beasts are coming.
And Rye might be the only one who can stand between them all.
