The Vanguard Tristan Schreck

Adler Parkins wanted to be a normal kid with an uneventful life. Really. But when his mother is Taken by the Common, Adler finds himself running for his life in the wild country outside his home city of Fulgor. Chased by Enforcers, threatened by FAIT and the unquestionable authority of the governing Common, Adler has a choice that's no choice at all...he's going to become a rebel, or he's going to die. Hidden beyond a mountain range the Common believes is impassable, Adler trains hard with his new allies. Yet as his skills improve, Adler discovers not everyone around him has the same goals. If he leads them to victory-if he can-will what he finds truly be what he seeks?Survival comes first, then it gets complicated.
