      About This Book

      Luke lives in a society whose finest art is fighting. Since a natural disaster years before, there have been no machines, people must rely on their bodies and wits. All believe in the Spirits—strange, otherworldly beings whose messages are relayed through hold Seers.

      Winchester is rigidly divided, and Luke knows his place. But one day, a Seer stops him in the street with a mysterious message. Do the Spirits have plans for him? And what will Luke do then?
