Dawn of the Lightbearer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798523548338)

He wasn't the chosen one. But he was the one who chose.

On the fringes of a dying empire, fifteen-year-old blacksmith's apprentice Erikson Gray discovers Lightbearer-a cursed blade of forgotten power. It whispers. It schemes. He hesitates... but takes it anyway.

Pursued by enemies on all sides, Erik flees with outcast knights and broken thieves. But the blade's voice grows louder. It feeds on doubt. Sharpens his need. Tests his resolve.

As trust frays and loyalties rot, Erik must choose: forge his own path, or fall to the one the blade demands.

Dawn of the Lightbearer begins Absolution of the Morning Star-a grimdark epic of cursed legacies, fractured kingdoms, and the razor's edge between redemption and ruin.

Perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie, Mark Lawrence, and dark legends born in blood.
