Master of Bones

HE WAS BORN TO DEVOUR SOULS. SHE WAS RAISED TO KILL A GOD.Three centuries after the rise of the Autarch, the world is a prison of ash and silence.
Marak—once mortal, now something far worse—rules an empire of fear with immortal hands.But in the shadows of the Withered Isles, a weapon has been forged in secret.Aurion Asar is a necromancer, bred and shaped by a hidden cabal of death mages to become a soul-eater—a living vessel for the powers of the dead. His purpose? To bring the Autarch's reign to an end . . . or die trying.But the path to godslayer is paved with corpses—and choice.Haunted by power he barely understands, and joined by Justinia—a gleefully unhinged assassin with a long, bloody past—and Stumbles, his loyal (and somewhat rotten) undead cat, Aurion must decide: How much of himself is he willing to lose to destroy the god who rules the world?Because in this empire, even destiny has a price.
