The Lyall Codex: The Ember Trial: Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798182356565)

The Lyall Codex: Book One follows James Lyall after a catastrophic Binding leaves him connected to six Sigils instead of one.

Sent to Arcanum Hall under emergency admission, James becomes the center of a quiet institutional panic. The academy wants to measure him, rank him, and decide whether he is miracle, mistake, or threat. James wants precise answers, honest language, and proof that his Sigils are people to be listened to, not power to be mastered.

As trial season approaches, James and his friends uncover evidence that the academy's lessons are not just flawed, but dangerous. To survive the Ember Court, James must learn the difference between command and relationship before the system built to test him breaks someone completely.
