About the Book
The gasps and murmuring grew. Though some were hardly more than whispers, clear words reached Jace’s ears—dangerous, monster, animal, soulless. He tried to back away from their accusing eyes, but the collar pulled hard against his throat and held him in place.
For all his years as a slave, Jace has known nothing but the hatred people hold for his mixed blood—one half human, the other half the blood of a race considered monsters. Always, he is the outsider and quickly learns it is better to keep to himself. But, when his volatile ryrik blood leads him to do the unthinkable, he is thrown into a world of violence and bloodshed.
Forced to become a gladiator, Jace finds more and more of his heart dying as his master works to break down his will not to become the monster everyone believes he is. When a stranger interferes with his master’s harsh punishment, Jace’s world is upended yet again. But with it comes the possibility of hope that has long since died. Could the man possibly hold the key to escaping the hopeless darkness that is Jace’s life? Is there such a thing as life beyond the cruelty of slavery?
See where Jace’s story all began . . .

EEP!!! I'm so excited for this!! I've read Resistance and absolutely fell in love with the characters and the story. So ready to learn more of Jace's past.
ReplyDeleteI've yet to read The King's Scrolls, but it's definitely at the top of my to-read list. I can't wait to find out where the next step of the journey leads. Kyrin and Jace are probably my favorite characters, and I greatly anticipate what they discover regarding the King's Scrolls and the adventures they experience along the way. What intrigues me the most about this series is how beautifully our Faith is woven into the story. So well done!
