The cycle of the old gods is broken. The battle for the throne of Maach has begun.

For fifteen years, Grace has lived in obscurity, shielded by the grim Master Jory from the political vipers who rule the capital. But when her royal lineage is violently exposed, she must step out of the shadows.

Plucked from his simple life and awakened to a terrifying, divine heritage, Ismay is thrust into the cosmic Void as a weapon against a ravenous Titan.

But in the dark, the line between savior and beast quickly blurs.

As armies clash on the cobblestones of Bandwagon, the fate of humankind hangs in the balance. Will the crown unite a broken world, or will the weight of legacy crush them all?
