The aether stone grants power to the worthy. For Roran, it gave nothing—except the ability to take it away. At the Shardfall Ceremony, every youth in the Casernak Basin receives a celestial gift—fire, storm, stone, or frost. Roran Los should’ve joined them, earning a place among the protectors of his homeland. But when he touches the aether stone, it goes dark. Branded a voidheart—a rare and feared anomaly capable of suppressing the powers of others—Roran is isolated from his peers and forbidden from training. No one can teach him. No one trusts him. And even he doesn’t know what he’s becoming. When a deadly force stirs in the ancient ruins beyond the basin, Roran must master the void threatening to consume him… or risk losing everything. Voidheart is the first book in an exciting new progression fantasy series, perfect for fans of Cradle, Iron Prince, and Academy of Magic. Expect a weak-to-strong hero, a unique suppression-based magic system, ancient mysteries, and creatures born from starlight and shadow.
