The Call of Wind (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999441805)

The power to control the elements, at the cost of your humanity.

Long ago, the gods blessed mankind with the power to call the elements, but at a terrible price. Without the protection of a ward rune, the power wilds its users, twisting them into monsters resembling the element they control.

Wilding and runes have never been of great concern to 16-year-old Elias. His talented half-brother Marc was given a rune by Gaya's Holy Grove not long after being blessed with lifecalling, so Elias has never worried much about the wilding that happens to unmarked callers.

But when Elias is blessed with windcalling, like his foreign father, it feels a lot more like a curse, since there are no runes for windcallers in his homeland of Eshira. Knowing that unmarked who aren't lifecallers tend to disappear, Marc risks everything to help Elias escape, betraying both his country and his goddess.

As Elias searches for a rune to halt the wilding and Marc is thrown into a brutal war, both brothers will learn shocking truths about themselves and the world around them.

The Call of Wind is the first book in the Unmarked series and will appeal to fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Shadow and Bone, and Eragon.
