A young man with no past must progress into a warrior out of legend.
Even if they don\'t remember themselves..
And he remembers his enemies all too well.
The world believes this deity long dead, but he is very much alive.
An ancient god. . .
And so does something far worse .
Monsters out of myth emerge.
His hard-earned skills are put to the test when strange rumblings emanate from deep in the Dagger Mountains.
When he earns a place at a prestigious elven warrior academy, Cinder fights to enhance his knowledge and perhaps even humble the proud elves who believe no human is their equal.
He discovers within himself a peculiar gift, one in which the codes of combat are made evident and the language of Steel is made clear.
His only understanding is a driving imperative-to protect those who can\'t defend themselves and become a warrior worthy of the name.
Cinder Shade\'s life begins on a fateful afternoon at the bottom of a well where he awakens, bruised, battered, and bereft of all memory.
