Guardian Blood (Primal Shadows)

By Nicholas Hoy

A global pandemic spanning millennia, carefully kept at bay through a perfect blend of magic and technology, is about to be revealed as something far more sinister than any society could have ever imagined...Tiered cities, magically grown miles high where the most powerful Mages rule and live on high in luxury while the weak or useless live street-level in perpetual darkness...Em 19: a Tech smuggler. Best in the business. Brought up on the deadly streets of Low-Town, where miles-high skyscrapers have created a world of eternal night. Drowning in debt, she takes a risk and heads topside. When a quick score explodes into chaos, Em's flight for her life lands her right in the middle of a conspiracy spanning back millennia--to when Humans still ruled the world...Corporate Technologies (CorTex): flagship of the Apex Corporations. Responsible for the creation and distribution of Magical Technologies (Tech), enhancing the lives of all Mages--for a price. An easy thing for Primes, the most powerful and wealthiest Mages on the planet. From their floating Isles, high above the cities, the untouchable ruling-class have no idea what's coming for their way of life...Reed Reynolds: an unsuspecting university student and gifted data prodigy is recruited by the Vice Magus of CorTex, Richard Holden, the most powerful Prime in Crescent City, to join the ranks of the elite-class. The young Data Mage is grateful for the once in a lifetime opportunity, and certain all of his dreams are about to come true, until he finds out that he must hack into the most secure location on the planet--where he'll discover ancient secrets that could rock the foundations of a global society.
