Publisher's summary

Abandoned to the streets as a child, enslaved, trained as an assassin, and perhaps destined to become the "Darkborn" the very embodiment of evil itself.

Chael thought he had left all that behind when he fled from those who wanted to use him for their own schemes and machinations. He and his loyal companion, the undead wolf Michik, fled to the one place on the continent he thought his past wouldn't dare pursue them. But old ghosts have returned and demons once again stalk the Western Forest.

When unlikely messengers bring news of a friend long dead, Chael must choose whether to return to the world he left behind or turn his back on the humanity that hates him. No matter his choice, Darkness is enshrouding the world of men. Old masters, zealous cultists, raging demons, and other unspeakable evils all vie to control the power of the Darkborn.

Great new series

This was a great story. Amazing world building can't wait to see where it goes. And you can't go wrong with an undead wolf as a companion.

Interesting characters

I am not a huge fan of books where the magic system seems to solve all the main characters problems, and this book suffered from that in my opinion. The main characters are interesting and easy to root for though, which made the story interesting.

Super entertaining and engaging

I enjoyed this new book/series from a new author. The book quickly engages the reader and holds their attention through to the end, leaving them anxious for future books in the series. I really enjoyed the magic system and the development of key characters. The book is well written and very entertaining. I look forward to the next in the series.
