Publisher's summary

In a world of titans, where martial artists reign supreme, Roy is wholly unremarkable. Without the power to channel the essence of the world, he is weak and defenseless.

Adopted into the Shah clan after his parents' deaths, he is forced to do menial labor day after day, all while enduring the ridicule and physical abuse of his supposed family.

Weakness is punishable by death in Buryoku and in the Shah clan, there is no one weaker than Roy. But even the weak can rise up, when pushed to the brink....

Great fun

it's a good book. the story is pretty engaging and the power progression system seems pretty internally consistent which I love. 10/10

Sci-Fi and Martial Arts World

Author: Aaron Oster. Book: Power. Interesting concept of a powerless young man given the opportunity to make something of himself. Good setup. Intriguing characters and world introduced. Good action also. DRmz 9-12-24

just as awesome as usual.

when I first read the plot summary for this book, I thought that it was going to be like some of Erin's early work. but I was pleasantly surprised, I honestly didn't think that he would go for the cultivation route. but even though he did, the book steal stuff to some of errands earlier works, and I like that a lot. And for person who is blind, I love all of description in a motion that both narrators from all of Aaron's books put into their performances. I can't wait to read the next book in the series, I'm looking forward to see where this story goes.

intriguing setting

i loved the setting and cant wait for more. underdog gets a chance to live better and strike back.... if he learns how.
the characters are liked and loved and a few rightfully hated. i can't wait to see where this all goes. tyvm

great book, well preformed, and exactly what I'm looking for in these types of books. Unfortunately there is an add at the end for a different shittier book.
