About the Book

Josh Sitka has never had it easy, but living at run-down McMurphy’s Orphanage will be the least of his worries when he is taken to Bladewielder Academy, the school for squires. Here is a magnificent world that has never moved on from the Middle Ages, where a secret society of Knights protect peace and justice from those who would disrupt it. And it is where Josh’s life will be forever altered, as he discovers friends, enemies, and stunning truths about his past and legacy that he never dreamed possible.
