One spark can shatter an empire.

In a world where magic has been outlawed and brutally suppressed under the Treaty of Kingdoms, sixteen-year-old Drayton Blaze discovers he possesses a forbidden power - Fusion - the ancient living force the Angarian Empire has spent a century trying to eradicate.

When his abilities violently awaken, Drayton is ripped from his ordinary life and thrust into a deadly chase across sea and sky. Pursued by relentless enforcers, he must find his way to Æellveria - the last free kingdom where Fusion still burns openly - before the Empire hunts him down.

A sweeping epic of awakening, rebellion, and fire against tyranny. Perfect for fans of Mistborn and The Name of the Wind.

The Treaty is cracking. The ash-born is rising.
