Gifted

He was born to end the world. Now, he just has to remember how.

Seventeen-year-old Aries has spent his life trying to fit into the glittering, hollow world of Palm Beach after being rescued from the streets by his wealthy adoptive father. But when a catastrophic freak accident kills his best friend, Aries walks away without a single scratch-and awakens a terrifying, impossible power burning deep within his core.

Suddenly, he's speaking dead languages, manifesting blue fire, and being hunted by a massive, heavily-armed shadow faction of the government. Forced on the run alongside his new neighbor, Janell, Aries begins to realize his survival was no miracle. It was an awakening.

Guided by a cryptic entity who claims to know him from ancient past lives, Aries must uncover the truth of what he really is and master his volatile new abilities. But with relentless federal forces closing in and his own god-like power threatening to consume him, learning the truth might just be the very thing that tears the world apart.

The cycle has awakened. And the true war is just beginning.
