Shadow of What Was Lost (Islington James)(Paperback)

A storytelling assurance rare for a debut . . . Fans of Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson will find much to admire Guardian. AS DESTINY CALLS, A JOURNEY BEGINS. It has been twenty years since the god-like Augurs were overthrown and killed. Now, those who once served them - the Gifted - are spared only because they have accepted the rebellions Four Tenets, vastly limiting their own powers. As a young Gifted, Davian suffers the consequences of a war lost before he was even born. He and others like him are despised. But when Davian discovers he wields the forbidden powers of the Augurs, he sets in motion a chain of events that will change everything. To the west, a young man whose fate is intertwined with Davians wakes up in the forest, covered in blood and with no memory of who he is . . . And in the far north, an ancient enemy long thought defeated, begins to stir. The Licanius trilogy: The Shadow of What Was Lost; An Echo of Things to Come; The Light of All That Falls.
