Power: Buryoku Book 1

In a world of titans, where Martial Artists reign supreme, Roy is wholly unremarkable. Without the power to channel the Essence of the world, he is weak and defenseless.


Adopted into the Shah clan after his parents' deaths, he is forced to do menial labor, all while enduring the ridicule and physical abuse of his supposed family.
Weakness is punishable by death in Buryoku, and in the Shah clan, there is no one weaker than Roy. But even the weak can rise up, when pushed to the brink…

Light: Buryoku Book 2

With the looming threat of death now hanging over his head, Roy makes the difficult decision to leave the Crater. Unfortunately for him, leaving won’t solve his problems, especially those stemming from within.

With Aika captured, Roy finds himself banished to the Wilds, once again powerless against the forces of Buryoku.

Powerful forces are gathering, and he’ll have to make his choice quickly. Buryoku is not kind to the weak and Roy knows that better than anyone. Will he rise up to reclaim what was once his, or will he fall prey to his innermost demons and fade into obscurity?
