FINANCIAL TIMES
A SAVAGE FUTURE. A VANISHED PAST. A MISSING KEY.
Among the ruins of a civilization beyond their understanding, humanity clings to survival. Guilds vie for control of ancient cities, bandits ride glowing highways, and cyborg adventurers hunt for lost technology.
In the City of Towers, once the heart of the fallen Tarakan empire, a historian searches for clues to explain the disappearance of Rafik, a young boy with extraordinary abilities – a Puzzler.
Marked with strange tattoos and gifted with a miraculous connection to Tarakan technology, Rafik could open doors inside the ruins, uncovering treasures and secrets.
As Rafik’s story is retold, it becomes clear that one lost boy may be the key to reviving a broken world or unleashing a new wave of devastation.

Something different, in the best possible way.
The most refreshing and original dystopian future novel I’ve read in quite a while! The world building, character development and overall story line are gripping and enticing right from the start, with compelling pacing and fantastic delivery from the narrator. A friend recommended this book to me and I’m so glad they did. Just get it.

This was an extremely fun journey!
"Spare no costs. Nothing we have ever done is more important than finding out what she knows."
This was an extremely fun journey! I quickly became attached to the main characters and the world was so interesting to dive into; there is a lot of traveling throughout the book so you really get to explore. I loved the concept of the marked and the puzzles unlocking doors containing old (yet extremely advanced) tech. Kinda reminded me of DnD campaign. There was never a dull moment. It's fairly fast-paced, but doesn't rush over the important information. Now watch as I dive straight into book two!
Favourite Quote:
"They didn't wake me up gently and I couldn't blame them for it. Vincha must have refused to give me the kiss of life, but Galinak had kindly administered the slaps of awakening and it was his grinning face I saw when I first regained consciousness."
