The second volume in the New York Times best-selling Cradle series!
Lindon has taken his first step on the road to power, but the sacred artists of the world outside his homeland are still far beyond him.
To advance, he turns to the arcane skills of the Soulsmiths, who craft weapons from the stuff of souls. With new powers come new enemies, but also new allies, including a mysterious mentor who seems interested in Lindon for his own purposes.
Even with new training and new help, Lindon is still only a Copper, and he soon finds himself facing down an entire sect of enemy Golds.
SERIES DESCRIPTION
The Cradle series is the best-selling example of the Progression Fantasy subgenre, which includes works of fantasy where the primary plot revolves around a character growing more powerful in their use of magic. Cradle is high-stakes, fast-paced, and action-focused, with minimal time dedicated to world-building, and as such the books are lean and focused. The series is often compared to anime, with fans using phrases like “anime in book form” or “fantasy novels meet Dragon Ball Z,” emphasizing the story’s specialty of loud and colorful super-powered battles.

He’d lost his smile somewhere along the way, and he was giving her a look of such
intensity that she wondered if she was seeing him for the first time.
“And that is exactly the problem I wish to solve. I have been looking for people to
walk with me every step of the way.” “Where to?” she asked. “To the end.” He let
that hang in the air, resonating with honest yearning like a pure musical note. The
end of the sacred arts. It was the definition of a myth, the unattainable goal
sought by every Path.
“You think Lindon can keep up?” Eithan gave a little shrug. “He’s a gamble, I’ll
admit. But if it pays off, then I’m more worried about you keeping up with him.”
