SoulBinder “Secrets in Blood”
He was betrayed, left for dead, and haunted by the ghosts of his past. Now, he’s coming back, and the voices in his head are eager for vengeance.
After a brutal mutiny shatters his clan, Kaelan awakens not in the afterlife, but in a waking nightmare. Cursed with a terrible immortality, he is tormented by a chorus of voices—the screaming souls of his slaughtered comrades. Believing himself mad, he flees into a desolate wasteland, a broken man wishing for death.
But death is not his destiny. He is a Soulbinder, the last heir of a forgotten bloodline. The voices are not a curse; they are his legacy—a legion of ancestral spirits bonded to his soul. They offer him their strength, their skills, and their knowledge… for a price. To survive the madness, he must learn to listen.
Guided by the echoes of mighty warriors, cunning hunters, and powerful mages, Kaelan must master the chaotic power within him. His journey leads him back to the ruins of his home and into a deadly confrontation with the brother who betrayed him: Valerius, a powerful water mage now corrupted by a stolen artifact—the Sword of Souls.
But Valerius is learning the sword’s dark secrets too, unleashing ancient beasts and soul-shattering powers in his quest for dominion. As brother marches against brother, a simple quest for revenge explodes into a war that will decide the fate of the world.
For fans of epic dark fantasy, immersive world-building, and relentless action, Soulbinder: Secrets in Blood is the gripping first entry in a new series that will leave you breathless.
