Does the need for knowledge balance its burden?
Donovan would prefer to die in his bed, but circumstances might force him to do otherwise.
When Donovan is tasked with Retrieving a young child thought to be a magus - the most powerful magic user in any generation - he is thrown headfirst into a world of intrigue and deception where any move he makes could be the one that shifts his people into a position of bloodshed and failure.
There is a war brewing, centuries old. The Hunters, blood mages and child-snatchers fight the born mages, people of the Order, the school of magic and scholarly pursuit. Donovan must learn who and what to trust and how to endure suffering as he finds more and more about the nature of this endless war and what he can do to stop it.
