Goodreads Synopsis: Beyond the maddening edges of creation lurk nameless horrors greater than the Whisper King himself.
To find his kidnapped daughter and save his hometown David Kinder must face these horrors, even as he tries to untangle a conspiracy that threatens to destroy the Whisper King’s empire in the Shadow Mountains.
Along the way he reconnects with old friends, makes new alliances, and discovers that sometimes to destroy monsters you must become something… worse.
Plot: Monsters are real. They live in the shadows, luring young boys away from their homes to
serve the Whisper King. Their purpose? To become monsters themselves, trained as warriors and taking on new forms.
David Kinder resisted the shadows for so long he is special when he gives in and allows himself to be taken. But his training provides him with companions and a feeling of belonging. To rise in the ranks of his fellow monsters, David must become the perfect soldier and deny anything that makes him human. Some things are harder to let go of than others.
