Darkness presses in from lower tiers of the Spiralrealm, and for Attica, survival is no longer enough, in the second book of this thrilling progression-fantasy epic.
Having buried his fallen mentor, Attica the Lone-Eyed Wolf stands at a breaking point—hunted, exiled, and pulled ever downward into realms where Shadowborn were never meant to tread. Meanwhile, Eli, a Lightborn child he has sworn to protect, is evolving into something wholly unprecedented . . . Attica will soon be forced to confront an impossible truth: The fate of the Spiralrealm may rest on a child the world would rather kill than protect. With only one shard of the all-powerful Crown of Shadows in his possession, time is running out. Now, to restore the realm and reclaim what he has lost, Attica must walk the razor's edge between shadow and light, wielding power that threatens to consume him. Because some victories demand more than blood. They demand sacrifice . . . Dark Souls and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 meets The Last of Us in the second volume of Shadowborn Exile, a dark, emotionally-driven LitRPG from the author of the Pilgrim series. Tropes include: revenge quest, weak to strong, good versus evil, found family, and friends to enemies.
