In Adam Burch’s thrilling series debut, a man must choose between violence and tranquility in a faraway world divided between those who thrive in endless sunlight and those who survive in eternal darkness.

The isolated planet of Tao is a house divided: the peaceful Daysiders live in harmony as the pale Nightsiders pursue power and racial purity through the violent ritual from the Fight.

Edmon Leontes, the soft son of the ruthless warrior commendable and a proud Daysider, embodies Tao’s divided nature. The merchandise of diametrically opposed races, Edmon hopes to live a peaceful life pursuing the music of his mother’s people, but his Nightsider father cruelly forces him to keep in his bloody footsteps to ensure his legacy.

Edmon’s defiance will definitely cost him everything…and spark a trend that will shake the foundations of Tao. His choice-to accept the light or surrender towards the darkness-will form his own destiny and that of his divided globe.
