Description
He was born with nothing. Until two wounded spirits chose him.
In the floating sky-kingdom of Aethra, every person is born with a spirit companion—a wolf, a hawk, a serpent. Ryo was born with nothing. Branded an Unbound, he has spent seventeen years in the shadows of the Undercity, invisible and alone. But when he stumbles upon two injured spirit creatures in the Forbidden Forest—Kitsu, a silver fox with three tails and a sharp tongue, and Neko, a shadow cat who moves between worlds—his life changes forever.
Spirits can only speak to their bonded humans. Yet these two Renegades, fleeing the Spirit Guard after breaking their original bonds, speak to Ryo. And when he forms an impossible triple bond with both of them, he awakens an ancient power the High Council tried to destroy. His spirit was stolen at birth. A Celestial Dragon—the last of its kind—was severed from his soul and sealed beneath the council tower. Now, with a sarcastic fox, a quiet shadow cat, and a growing army of Unbounds and Renegades, Ryo must reclaim what was taken, free the dragon, and restore the Primordial Pact—or watch the kingdom crush everything he loves.
