A gritty, fast-paced YA alternative history/fantasy series set in Australia
ABOUT THE BOOK
An assassin hunting a blood debt
An ancient land arising from legend
A feud between dreams and duty
…and a choice that will decide the fate of an entire civilisation
Sixteen-year-old Nick Williams’ biggest problem is staying out of the principal’s office—until an assassin murders his aunt and an estranged cousin drags him through a song gate to a war-torn land that shouldn’t exist.
Hunted by a king who wants him dead, Nick’s only hope for survival may be Cal, a deserting enemy soldier haunted by the massacre he was forced to commit, who is on his own desperate search for redemption.
Caught in a war where loyalty is a weapon, their greatest threat may not be the assassins on their trail, but the secrets they keep from each other.
But to save the people he loves, Nick must confront the thing he fears most—relinquish his dreams and claim the birthright he never wanted.
