Dreyan is dead.
Broken flesh, the soul preternaturally clinging to it. Doomed to carry a weapon that can kill gods, a weapon only the dead can wield, he stays on the move, forgoing attachments, determined never to be anyone’s villain—or hero—again.
All that changes, though, when he meets Ana. Dreyan’s unexpected affection for Ana will pit him against a cult of undead warrior priests who have come to her village seeking thralls for their dark pilgrimage. Dreyan must choose: cling to his tattered morals, or turn to the darkness within to save the person he cares about most. At the very precipice of the world, an ancient fortress looms, promising answers, clemency, or utter devastation: Rhüanbane.
"Absolutely loved it, what a masterpiece!! The writing, the lore, the characters, the setting... everything about this book was just *chefs kiss*" -Chelsea Bee
"This is like if The Witcher and GDT's Frankenstein (2025) had a book baby - and it's the best thing ever. I absolutely tore through this book. It's incredibly atmospheric, emotional, and delivers twists and turns right when you want them." -Kit Frey
"A dark, brutal, and unexpectedly emotional fantasy read. Dreyan is the kind of character I love—broken, morally complicated, and carrying way more darkness than he wants anyone to see." -Rudi McKay, Ed.D
"I think the author is incredibly talented. The worldbuilding, character work, creation of atmosphere and their style of prose is very impressive, especially for a debut." -@rxbinreads
