Inhaltsangabe

The Void is patient. The Descent is inevitable. And Layten Grayread is running out of time.

He survived what should have killed him—but survival came with a price. Layten is an Anchor now, one of the cursed few who can absorb wild magic into the emptiness inside themselves. The power is intoxicating. The hunger is constant.

And eventually, every Anchor goes mad.

When that happens—when they've absorbed too much and the madness takes hold—their Protector walks them into the Descent. A stairway leading deep beneath the earth. A place no one returns from.

Not the Anchor. Not the Protector. No one.

Layten's grandfather, Fean Resit, says this fate was always waiting for him. That his bloodline made it inevitable. But as Layten trains to control the Void before it consumes him, he begins to understand what the other Anchors already know:

The Descent isn't a mystery. It's a promise.

Outside the Anchorhold, the war is escalating. Buniler burns. The Golons are wiped out. Vilom consolidates power across the North, and the crusade becomes something far more sinister. In the South, an enemy gathers magic on a scale that could end everything.

And with every spell Layten absorbs, every fragment of wild magic he pulls into the Void, he feels the Descent getting closer.

His memories have been tampered with. His past has been rewritten. And the hunger inside him is growing faster than he can control.

Book Three of The Ascendant Path. The Void always wins. The Descent always waits. And Layten Grayread is already falling.
