It begins in Toronto, in the years after the smart drug revolution. Any high school student with a chemjet and internet connection can download recipes and print drugs, or invent them. A seventeen-year-old street girl finds God through a new brain-altering drug called Numinous, used as a sacrament by a new Church that preys on the underclass. But she is arrested and put into detention, and without the drug, commits suicide. Lyda Rose, another patient in that detention facility, has a dark secret: She was one of the original scientists who developed the drug.

She was taught to breathe. To listen. To feel the hum beneath the chaos. She didn't know she was learning to wake up the world. Veda lives underground with the Rooted—the last humans still connected to the Earth. While billions float in sky cities, numbed by frequencies they can't feel, she practices the old ways. Stillness. Breath. Tuning in. But something ancient is waking in her blood. Something that hasn't surfaced in two hundred years. The forces that severed humanity from the Earth will do anything to stop her. She's going to broadcast anyway. Part warrior. Part mystic. All heart.

Crow might hate the Medics even more than those who put him in the dungeon in the first place. Unfortunately for Crow, the Medics control the third level of Toroth-Gol. Not only that, but they've imprisoned Crow's father--and they're not afraid to use him as leverage to get what they want.
