Description

Magic is a disease. It spreads like a plague and drives the infected mad with power.

Death is the only cure.

Seventeen-year-old Kole Felmen is destined for a life spent executing infected sorcerers and disposing of their tainted remains.

But his first execution ends in disaster. Fearing he has been infected with the sorcerer’s plague, Kole sees only one option: flee his village before his mind snaps and he destroys everyone he loves.
