‘Phenomenal! One of the best high fantasy novels I’ve read in years – think Red Rising meets The Name of the Wind. I couldn’t put it down.’ ynette Noni


‘Unsettling, gripping, timely, powerful – this book is highly recommended.’ Rick Riordan


The Catenan Republic – the Hierarchy – may rule the world now, but they do not know everything.


I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilised society in allowing my strength, my drive and my focus – what they call Will – to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.


I tell them that I belong, and they believe me.


But the truth is that I have been sent to the Academy to find answers. To solve a murder. To search for an ancient weapon. To uncover secrets that may tear the Republic apart.


And that I will never, ever cede my Will to the empire that executed my family.


To survive, though, I will still have to rise through the Academy’s ranks. I will have to smile, and make friends, and pretend to be one of them and win. Because if I cannot, then those who want to control me, who know my real name, will no longer have any use for me.


And if the Hierarchy finds out who I truly am, they will kill me.
