Description
The Sky has a voice, but only a chosen few can hear it. These men--the Windspeakers--are elevated and revered as the peacekeepers of Kentro, but a dark and well-kept secret stains their past: The Windspeakers killed the Sovereign. Haunted by his father's murder and his mother's suicide, the young and headstrong Aren Diallo is next in line to receive the throne. But when the opportunity to join the Windspeakers' Creed means a chance to avenge the deaths of his parents, he will abandon the Sovereignty to hunt down his father's killer. Inside the Windspeakers' infamous tower, however, Aren finds himself thrust into the center of a larger and more dangerous story than he'd expected. The murderer is still at large, and he's chosen Aren as his next target. While Aren prepares for their final encounter, cryptic messages and secret passageways begin to reveal the Windspeakers' twisted history and his only hope of survival. A treacherous new path awaits him as the untold story of the Windspeakers comes to light. Strange alliances are sealed in blood, forgotten powers start to awaken, and an age-old evil comes back from the dead. There is more than just revenge at stake as Aren races against time to uncover the truth and defeat his shady opponent, or else be doomed to share his parents' tragic fate. ~•~ 🥇 The Freedom Awards (2019) 1st Place in Fantasy 🥇 The Golden Awards (2020) 1st Place in Fantasy ⚠️ Contains scenes of suicide and physical abuse. highest: • #1 in towers • #7 in YA fantasy • #12 in YA fiction • #15 in high fantasy { Beautiful cover art by @blackroguex }
