FREEDOM IS THE ABILITY TO MAKE A CHOICE...

Seyonne was not always a slave. Once his people were the guardians of magic such as the land had never seen, protectors and defenders. But the Derzhi came, and enslaved them. Now, years of degradation and misery have blurred Seyonne's memory, and sapped his strength. To his people, he is already dead. And to him, death is all that is left – until he finds hope in a most unlikely place...

Sold once again, Seyonne is bought by Aleksander, the heir to the Derzhi Empire. His new master is cold, and heedlessly cruel. But within Aleksander, the seeds of greatness wait. All it would take is guidance from one such as Seyonne once was...

But time is short, for demons have also noticed Aleksander – and what they cannot control, they will destroy...

Carol Berg is one of my favorite writers. Her stories are mesmerizing, and her writing is on a level all its own. Once I started this book, I had a very hard time putting it down. I am very excited to start reading the second book of this series!
