Out of the Darkness

Marcus, son of Barsadias, of the five hundred and ninety-eighth legion of our King Zoren, will very soon be dead. As a blind man, his only use is to perish in the elven lands and advance the armies of Remisia. The magical barriers that protect the realm will tear his body to shreds, and he will scream like every other man, woman, and child who has gone before him. Chained at the ankles with a spear at his back, he lifts his hand to feel the path ahead, and when he doesn't die, everyone, including himself, wants to know how he lived.

Tortured, starving, and barely surviving, Marcus does not understand the significance of his crossing and the part it will play in the rebellion of all.

"Elisabeth Rodgers's incredible words paint a rich world full of beauty and horror, all woven together in the most epic of stories. You'll never want to put it down." -CHARIS JOY JACKSON, author of Too Bright
