Synopsis
They burned his village. They slaughtered his family. They should have killed him too. Karn was just a boy when the Witch Queen’s soldiers came in the night, leaving only ash, blood, and ruin behind. Taken captive by the very man who destroyed his home, Karn is given a new name and thrown into the Forge, a brutal training ground where the Witch Queen shapes her deadliest warriors. But Karn is different. Magic cannot touch him. In a world ruled by fear, rage may be the only weapon strong enough to fight back. Yet power always demands a price, and the fury growing within Karn may turn him into something far more dangerous than his enemies ever imagined. Perfect for fans of dark fantasy, revenge-driven heroes, and brutal rise-to-power journeys.
