Soul Script: Book One of the Shodin Chronicles

What if you could change anything about yourself with the stroke of a pen? In the last city of Valmaron, people have learned how to do just that. At a price.

Magic has replaced machines. Men have become monsters. And a deity controls who wields power, and who serves it. The time of Atonement approaches. Now that he has come of age, Jaron Spellcraft knows that he must bear the burden of those who remain.

What he doesn't know, is that his first choice as an adult will affect the lives of everyone in the entire kingdom. He didn't ask for the world’s most powerful artifact to bond itself to him. He didn't ask to be personally contacted by the deity of his religion.

Jaron doesn't care about politics, or what it's going to take to fulfill his mission. All he wants to do is marry his best friend. And it just so happens that she's the Princess in a city where your life path is pre-determined...Unless you can change the Script.
