Son of Aethril

Ever since Maximus lost his partner, survival is all that matters. But after discovering an ancient power flowing through his veins, Max receives an invitation he cannot ignore. Solis Academy, a magical school where every room has a secret and every shadow has a doorway, welcomes him into its fabled halls…under threat of death. As Max struggles to complete school without losing his soul, an ancient evil stirs in the east, seeking to create a new ending to the last great war. To stop them, Max will need to put aside his ambitions, master his powers, and fight alongside his rivals… but even then, he cannot rely on one timeline alone.
