A military science-fiction conflict where magic becomes humanity’s counterforce

Clint Hall places a 22-year-old soldier in a future ruled by AI war machines whose elemental magic has overwhelmed the Human Alliance. After losing his unit to an android fire mage, Gunnar Graves survives under machine control while attempting to awaken elemental abilities of his own. His emerging power connects him to an ancient, life-based force and to other life mages, widening a personal campaign for revenge into a struggle over humanity’s survival. Android overlords, cyborg clans, and competing forms of power frame the novel’s blend of military science fiction and fantasy, while Gunnar’s hidden secret and uncertainty about the war’s outcome keep the conflict personal as well as large-scale.

Book overview

The Human Alliance knew the war was over when the machines started using magic to cast fire, shake the ground, conjure storms, and part the seas.

We fought back anyway.


22-year-old soldier Gunnar Graves lost his faith and his family when a platoon of AI-driven war machines--led by an android fire mage--destroyed his unit. Forced to live in a machine-controlled village and hiding a dark secret, he spends his days trying to learn elemental power so he can take his revenge. After years of failure, his ability ignites when he least expects it.

On the run and hunted by the war machines, Gunnar discovers that an ancient, life-based strength has awakened to help humanity fight back. Joined by the other life mages, Gunnar is thrust into a mad world of android overlords, cyborg clans, and evil forces bent on his destruction.

To protect his newfound family, Gunnar must discover the truth behind a power he doesn't understand and wage a war he doesn't believe they can win.
