Description
The world is crumbling. And no one knows how to stop it. Eons ago, the Lastborn saved the world from complete destruction by his brother and fellow god, the Firstborn. Now, the world is set for the Lastborn's return, with his army of dead rising at the hands of necromancers. Erik didn't think it had anything to do with him. Grown complacent on his home island near the edge of the world, he is torn from routine when his closest friend suddenly murders him. Then a necromancer gives him a second chance by reanimating him into the most human-like deadwalker yet, and Erik struggles to find the one person who might lead him to true resurrection, a mysterious man known as the Rook. But things are not as they seem. A shadow stalks his every footstep. And as designs unwind around him, Erik finds his own pursuit may be the thing that finally shatters the world. Gods are not godly. Heroes are not heroic. An epic fantasy that pushes the boundaries of the genre.
