Jak never dreamed of wielding power—he only wanted to map uncharted realms. But when he stumbles upon the legendary dragon gate with his archaeologist mother, everything changes.
Jak’s life as a humble cartography student shatters as he gains magical abilities that rival the tyrannical wizards he despises. These wizards, ruling from their lofty cities, crush anyone who dares to threaten their iron grip. Jak has no intention of becoming one of them, but fate has other plans.
Soon, elite assassins close in, determined to eliminate the one person capable of disrupting their rule. If Jak can’t harness his powers and the mysteries of the gate, not only will he lose his freedom—he’ll lose his life.
Can he rise above, or will he be the next victim of wizardly wrath?
