A common thief from Barth is the only one who can stop a primal evil. But what will it cost to save his fracturing world? For centuries, the Golden Realm basked in a fragile peace. Now, the dark currents of an ancient force are bleeding in. Orphaned and desperate, Rand survives the streets by picking pockets. But when he robs a blind mage, he accidentally ignites a dormant, terrifying power within himself. Hunted and on the run, Rand faces a ruthless alliance bent on resurrecting the merciless Endless King. His only hope for survival is to unite the splintered factions of Migdinnar and track down the Arcanum Compendium, the lost tome holding the secret to their salvation. Can Rand harness Old Magic long enough to save his friends, or will it turn him into the very monster he is fighting to destroy?
