The Old Places (The Anchor's Inheritance Saga Book 1)

The Guild tested Nick Vance and stamped his file: Rust Tier. Defective. They measured the size of his mana pool. They never checked the pressure of the pump.His father's death leaves him a failing rune-shop, a box of broken Spirit Balls, and a five-thousand-gold debt to a Guild that collects in kidneys. His one real asset is a salvage license to the Old Places, ruins so hostile that armies stopped trying. Then Nick repairs the cracked Ball his father died chasing, and out steps Kaela: seven feet of berserker who fought beside his great-grandfather, slept fifty years in the dark, and burns through mana faster than any Anchor alive can feed her.Almost any Anchor.Now a Magelord wants the license, hired killers want Nick's hands broken, and the ruins want them both. Thirty days to pay. One bottomless spring. One weapon that toppled cities, finally fed.Brutal, hilarious, and dangerously bingeable. Book 1 of The Anchor's Inheritance Saga: power tiers, dead gods' salvage, a debt clock, and a Spirit who treats armies as cardio.Grab your copy now and start the saga binge readers won't put down.
