"Highly recommended for fans of epic fantasy" - Sophia S.
"From the first page to the last, I was hooked." - Haleigh V.
Condemned for a crime she can't remember, Eri Ryleth wakes in a dungeon with only a headache and a death sentence. Her only hope: survive the brutal Blackwing Institute, where every recruit is a criminal and every test is deadly. Marked by a dragon's blessing and haunted by powers she barely understands, Eri must master dark magic, navigate shifting alliances, and outwit a Commander whose secrets are as dangerous as his touch.
As war erupts and ancient dragons stir, Eri faces a choice: embrace the darkness within, or let it consume her. In a world where loyalty is lethal and love is a liability, can she unravel the truth behind her past before it destroys her future?
Dark magic. Deadly trials. One woman's fight to claim her power-or die trying.
