In a world where magic, technology, and nature have merged, the few who can control Runes hold dominance over all of creation. All believe that Aleksi, a 16-year-old orphan, was blessed to be born with a Rune embedded in his palm, but that's only because they don't know the truth - Aleksi's Rune is so powerful it's killing him.
Asura, a brutal emperor who uses Runes to conquer entire continents, will stop at nothing to kill Aleksi and claim the boy's power for his own. With Aleksi's Rune burning its way through his body and assassins hunting his every step, his survival depends on discerning ally from enemy and learning to tame the competing forces of light and dark within.
With the burden of his rune haunting his days and the prophetic whispers of a young captive priestess illuminating his nights, Aleksi will be able to unravel the mysteries of his past, rescue the girl in his dreams, and challenge the most powerful warlord the world has ever known only if the one thing keeping him alive - his Rune - does not kill him first.

This story had a lot of potential to be really good, but it was too confusing for me. It is a complex world and the workings of it were not completely clear. However, the magic structure did seem to be unique. Fortunately, in spite of the confusion, the story was pretty interesting. There were a lot of characters, and I actually liked the pirate ship captain and his crew a lot. Aleksi, by comparison, was not as exciting and preoccupied. His coming of age story must progress through the next novels, but he appears to grow little in this novel. The growth is intellectual and hopefully, that will translate to character changes as the novel continues and he comes to terms with a revelation from this novel. A lot of the story takes place on a ship, which is not as confining as it may seem. However, there was a lot of description of the ship’s components like the different rigging and the boom that could get boring. The novel ends at a stopping point, but there is not resolution. Overall, the story as a lot of potential, but the world needs to be a little better explained.
This novel was narrated by Kevin T. Collins. I personally found the narration irritating. Each word was so deliberately forceful that it was distracting, but an effort was made to make the characters distinguishable. The production quality of the novel was good. I would recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys high fantasy with unique magic structures and sea-bound stories.

I stopped listening at the 4 chapter because it is all the same. By the 4th chapter, not one of the characters are ever developed to a point that I start to car.
The narrator is constantly sounding excited and is going through the book at a record pace. It becomes like watching a NASCAR race. It seems exciting, but then you realize its just driving in circles. Then you start drinking and hear the cars as white noise in the background.
In all, too much background information on ultimately useless things with a narrator that tried to make it exciting.
Too much background information
