By Sword and Sea

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

Time doesn't heal all wounds.

In a world where fate brands its victims from birth, Gogenanth bears a cursed mark—a pale complexion and a haunting widow's peak. But his destiny is more sinister than most: enslaved by the gods, he endures the loss of family and is thrust into a cycle of violence.

Trained to become a formidable soldier like others of his kind, Gogenanth rises among the best, yet the shadows of his past threaten to consume him. As he grapples with the darkness within, he discovers that conquering it might unleash powers beyond imagination, propelling him toward a destiny greater than he ever dared to dream.

C.K. Rieke is the author of the Song of Ellydian series, the Riders of Dark Dragons series, the Dragon Sands Series, and the Path of Zaan trilogy.
