After being exiled to a distant, unfamiliar world by forces beyond his understanding, former U.S. soldier Kyle Thompson is thrust into a mission unlike any he's faced before. In a land bound by medieval oppression, where magic and steel reign, he discovers a people known as the Beastkin—enslaved, hunted, and forced to flee into a deadly desert. With only his military training, and the support of enigmatic allies, Kyle takes a stand, silently defending those who can’t protect themselves. But his unseen actions ripple through the lands, raising questions about the desert, and soon his mission to liberate might carry consequences far beyond what he’s prepared for.
