About this audiobook
'A blast of heart-racing magic you won't want to miss.' Andrew Joseph White
'Story alchemy unlike any other.' A. R. Capetta
'A thrilling, expansive adventure.' Elana K. Arnold
'Standout fantasy.'Publisher's Weekly
Three young alchemists embark on a quest leading them towards unexpected love and unimaginable power - the debut YA fantasy from the bestselling and award-winning Kacen Callender.
Ash Woods isn't supposed to perform alchemy - he'll be arrested if anyone ever finds out. But when he's caught by the condescending Ramsay Thorne, instead of handing him over to the reds, Ramsay blackmails Ash into helping with a dangerous personal mission: finding the legendary Book of Source, said to make its reader an all-powerful alchemist.
As Ash and Ramsay work together, their feelings for each other grow. But, Ash must discover his own power and find out how far other alchemists are willing to go to get it.
Fans of Cemetery Boys and Iron Widow will love this LGBTQ+ romantasy reminiscent of A Deadly Education meets Six of Crows - the beginning of a powerful fantasy adventure.
