Description
We live in a world. Where people can control the stars above And the Earth below. Where gravity is just a word and time has no authority over us. We live in a world where extraordinary people Can control just about everything. Everything except for their own fate. A Tainting Light follows the story of an eighteen-year-old boy that was gifted with authority over fire. His mother had command over water and they were both hiding their abilities from the world. When Finn loses control of his emotions, his world slowly crumbled in the flames. We follow him into a completely different world where almost everyone has authority over something, but it is not as glamorous as he had pictured. Right before Finn's mother passed away she told him everything about Centure, an island off the coast of California where the manipulators live. She told him about the variations of power that her people possess. Extraordinary people can control just about everything- everything except their own fate. For most, you are either claimed for light or dark at birth; covered with markings for everyone to see. The lights are by nature good and able to thrive inside the large cities, the darks are evil at birth and live on the outskirts of city walls with little to nothing. Finn comes to this world as a craved, someone who is not yet claimed, and is immediately scorned for this. The craved are dangerous because once they are claimed, they gain authority over another substance.The seven other craved and Finn search for a mythical item that they believe will change everything, but when both good and evil are seeking their demise, it is only a matter of time until they have to give up, or risk everything trying.
