AS DESTINY CALLS, A JOURNEY BEGINS

It has been twenty years since the god-like Augurs were overthrown and killed. Now, those who once served them - the Gifted - are spared only because they have accepted the rebellion&apos;s Four Tenets, vastly limiting their own powers.

 As a young Gifted, Davian suffers the consequences of a war lost before he was even born. He and others like him are despised. But when Davian discovers he wields the forbidden powers of the Augurs, he sets in motion a chain of events that will change everything. 

To the west, a young man whose fate is intertwined with Davian&apos;s wakes up in the forest, covered in blood and with no memory of who he is . . . 

And in the far north, an ancient enemy long thought defeated, begins to stir.
