On the eve of his baptism, a village boy is torn from the only life he has ever known and thrust into a hidden world of secrets, conspiracies, and forbidden truths. Here, the gods are nothing like the hymns proclaim. The earth itself still bleeds from an ancient wound, and every prayer may be a thread in a much darker design. Hunted by ruthless factions and confronted with the primal forces that shaped his world, he must choose: cling to the comforting lie he was raised to believe, or risk everything to uncover the real truth — a truth powerful enough to remake his world… or destroy it.
