The Outcast

Set before the events of The Novice, this is the prequel to the New York Times bestselling Summoner Trilogy


ONLY THE CHOSEN FEW HAVE THE POWER TO SUMMON DEMONS

Arcturus is just an orphaned stable boy when he accidentally summons a demon. As Hominum's first common summoner, he becomes the key to a secret that the powerful nobility will do anything to keep hidden.

He is immediately whisked away to Vocans Academy where the lost arts of summoning, spell craft and demonology are taught to the noble children of the Empire. In no time, Arcturus finds himself surrounded by enemies as teachers and students question his right to be there. But before he can even attempt to make friends, his life is turned upside down once again, for the Empire is in turmoil.

Rebellion is simmering among the masses, and it will not be long before it boils over. Arcturus must choose a side...
or watch the Empire crumble.
