Shadowborn

Shadowborn is the tale of Aeryn, a street girl poised on the knife's edge of death, whose innate ability to Drift and meld with the shadows draws the attention of a powerful Lord who seeks to use her to bring down a thousand year old god. Relying time and again on her wolfish pet Jynx and her ability to Drift and become a Shadow, Aeryn has been able to eke out a living as a street urchin where countless others have perished. A fateful run-in with a powerful and enigmatic Lord sends her life spiraling out of control. In over her head and leagues from the familiar, meager life she once knew, all Aeryn can do is struggle to ride the currents of a city overflowing with cutthroats, soldiers, scheming nobles, and Nameless, a thousand year old god and his legions of power-hungry Shades and Voices. Trusting in her mantra to "move forward," Aeryn soon finds herself challenging a god and changing the fate of the nation. Pages : 419 Word Count : 119208
