A world of light will discover the true terror of the shadow. In the glittering, high-tech city of Aetheria, superpowers—or Aethers—are everything. They are the currency, the defense, and the birthright of every citizen. To be an Aetherian is to be touched by greatness. But Elias Vane is a Null. Elias has spent fifteen agonizing years as a pariah, a defect in a perfect society. He is the constant target of the powerful, arrogant elite, led by the ruthless telekinetic Kael. Elias endures the daily humiliation, held together only by the fierce loyalty of his one friend, Lira, whose minor Healing Aether can only bandage the wounds the world inflicts. Elias's final chance for acceptance looms on his sixteenth birthday—the last opportunity for a late-blooming power to manifest. The world expects nothing. Kael expects destruction. But when the clock strikes midnight, Elias doesn't receive a minor gift. He doesn't receive light or energy. Instead, a unique, devastating power explodes from his core: the Umbra-Aether. A primordial, consuming force of solidified shadow, a power whispered about only in ancient, suppressed legends—and one no living Aetherian possesses. Now, the bullied Null is the strongest, most feared entity in Aetheria. The Umbral Genesis Series follows Elias as he navigates a world that suddenly wants him destroyed, controlled, or worshipped. He must master a power that threatens to turn him into the very monster his enemies believe him to be, all while fighting to dismantle a corrupt society built upon the centuries-old lie of his very existence. Read The Umbral Genesis and witness the birth of a power that will cast the entire world into shadow.
