In this world, survival is decided by Scars. They appear on the flesh, granting power… or taking your life. Nolan should have died. He was sacrificed alongside other young men, victims of Blackwood Village’s heir, a ruthless young lord willing to spill innocent blood to secure his place in the Scar Granting Ritual. But Nolan returned. Marked by the scars of his own execution, he awakens with something impossible: a Golden Scar, a rare, feared mark shrouded in mystery. Now, wielding a power he doesn't understand and surrounded by far stronger enemies, Nolan desires only two things: to survive… and to seek revenge. But before he can escape, the army of the Scarmith Kingdom drags him back to the place where he should have died. Forcibly recruited for an impending war and forced to participate in the same ritual that sealed his fate, Nolan will discover that his execution was only the beginning. In this world, every scar has a price. And some... require blood.
