The First Shadow — Book One of The 144,000 Guardians (PDF)

Before Light, there was Darkness—and Darkness remembers what Light was before it called itself holy.

Kael-Sor wakes inside the hollow heart of a dead star with no memory of who made him. Serapha, Commander of the First Flame, tells him he is a weapon of the Light, forged to destroy the shadow devouring the world of Elyndra.

But the plague does not attack. It shelters children. It guards the dead. It gathers wherever the towers of Light have burned away night, grief, and memory. And a chained princess named Ashari can still hear what it remembers.

To save Elyndra, Kael-Sor must decide whether he was made to obey the Light—or to protect the balance it fears. Because Light did not create the world. It escaped into it—and something has noticed the door is open.
