For a world that has elevated created things above its creator and forgotten where it came from, a price must be paid. The empire of Barra-Dohn is the first to pay that price, and as a remnant flees the fall of that empire, the mysterious Jin Dara seeks unimaginable power by gathering all the fragments of the Golden Cord together. The exiles from Barra-Dohn and the Amhuru, a tribe of nomadic warriors who protect those fragments must try to stop him. There is nowhere to run and there are no safe places; The Wandering has begun.

A series of mysterious visitors begins to converge on Barra-Dohn, and both Eirmon and Kaden face choices that will determine not only the fate of the Omiir family, but the future of the empire they rule.

The Road is an autobiographical memoir by Jack London, first published in 1907. It is London's account of his experiences as a hobo in the 1890s, during the worst economic depression the United States had experienced up to that time.[1] He describes his experiences hopping freight trains, "holding down" a train when the crew is trying to throw him off, begging for food and money, and making up extraordinary stories to fool the police. He also tells of the thirty days that he spent in the Erie County Penitentiary, which he described as a place of "unprintable horrors," after being "pinched" (arrested) for vagrancy. In addition, he recounts his time with Kelly's Army, which he joined up with in Wyoming and remained with until its dissolution at the Mississippi River
