A hot-headed fool. A master of none.

Now, he's been called to save the world.

Conner would give just about anything to have his old life back. Back when the most complicated part of his day was deciding which trail to run.

Because breaking one woman's heart while pursuing another, finding a lost dragon race, and withstanding the trials that make The Death Race seem like a vacation make him want to wish it all away.

Backed by a shapeshifting sorceress, a circumstantial ally, and a dark-haired beauty whose moves are just as dangerous as her looks, Connor faces the daunting tasks before him.

If he rallies to the occasion, he will be named the Judge of an Elite race of humans. If he fails, a new Darkness looms to bring the world's powers to their knees.

Don't miss a beat of the action in this smart, witty, action-packed series.
