When a dying mage pulls Cedric from a freezing bus into a realm of brutal magic, he doesn't offer him a destiny—he offers him a leash. Now, Cedric is the Herald of the Grimoire of Monsters and Beasts, a legendary artifact he is forced to guard and master. In a world that views him as a tool of vengeance, Cedric must learn to create, summon, and tame the very nightmares he's been tasked to protect. He isn't a savior. He’s a guard dog with a book full of teeth, and the world is about to find out just how hard he bites.
