❖ IAN Book of the Year Winner
A perfect entry point into the Chronicles of Chaos.
Never meet your heroes. Especially if they’re dead.
Held only once in a century, the Game of War is sacred and brutal. Some who enter it never return.
To free his imprisoned father, Dantess must win the rank the Game offers—but surviving it will require enduring a trial designed to break men far stronger than he is.
He carries more than resolve.
As a priest of War, he bears a token that grants him the memories of those who came before him, including his legendary grandfather—a man revered within the temple and feared outside it.
But the truth carried in those memories is one the temple buried. What Dantess uncovers about his grandfather forces him to confront a darkness that outlived the man who carried it.
He enters the Game to save his father, certain that victory will solve everything.
He is about to learn how wrong that belief can be.
