Synopsis

To his family, Jude Sterling was a mute disgrace. He was abandoned without mercy. In truth, he was bound by a decade-long vow of silence, a vital step in his path to immortality. On his tenth birthday, summoned home purely for show, he returned not as the boy they had cast aside, but as a prodigy of verse… and a warrior whose strength could shake the world.
