Especially if they're dead.One such hero is Dantess' grandfather, a priest of War whose legend was born from a lifetime of glorious battles. Every day, fifteen-year-old Dantess trains to be just like his idol, hoping to join War's temple.Only, his father sees the temple not as a hero's forge, but a grinder of idealistic souls like his son's. He forbids Dantess entry, but one rebellious act lands his father inside, a prisoner of the very god he despises.Now Dantess faces a gut-wrenching choice: watch his father rot in War's dungeon, or become the monster his father fears—a priest whose extraordinary powers come from the God of War himself. Using those abilities in the temple's brutal arena, the Game of War, is the only path to freedom.Dreams of glory curdle into a reality of blood and betrayal. Visions of his dead grandfather whisper dark secrets, twisting the priest's legacy into a web of lies.
