The Will of the Many
About this book
The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned three years ago, and that only good fortune has got me into their most prestigious school. I tell them that, when I graduate, I will allow my strength and drive—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as everyone must do. I tell them that I belong, and they believe me. But the truth is that I have been sent to the Academy to solve a murder. To search for an ancient weapon. To uncover secrets that may tear the Republic apart. And that I will never cede my Will to the empire that executed my family. To survive, though, I will have to rise through the Academy's ranks, and win. Because if I cannot, those who know my real name will no longer have any use for me. And if the Hierarchy finds out who I truly am, they will kill me.
