The Crucible of Chains

FROM DREAMER TO PRISONER

In a single shattering moment, Tyler’s world is torn apart. His best friend is lost. His freedom is stolen. And he is dragged aboard a black-sailed vessel where men are bought and sold, where chains are currency, and where hope is a luxury no one can afford.

Now bound to a cursed pirate ship and a crew touched by dark magic, Tyler must survive in a world far crueler than any map he ever drew.

But survival is only the beginning.

Something ancient is stirring inside him. A power he doesn’t understand. A truth the pirates fear.

And a destiny the sea has not yet finished writing.
