Bloodlight: Awakening (The Bloodlight Duology)

GUNS, GRIT, AND SORCERY Crow's Quarter teems with Delstad's most destitute. A hive of inequality, violence and suffering. Its denizens haunt the streets, living in fear of Delstad's authorities. Cowering in the shadow of the Tower and its Magehunter. Their blood glowing with dormant magic, the Lightbloods of Delstad pray never to Awaken. For when the power of a mage rises within them, that is when Drük, the Gunman, seeks them out. For a mage, the only sentence is death. Except for Riuna. Imprisoned in the Tower, using its almighty Machine to pinpoint members of her own kind, Riuna's sole task is to help Drük hunt mages when they Awaken. The only man she trusts is the one charged with killing her if she gets out of line. When Ludin, an urchin from Crow's Quarter, Awakens with powers beyond most mages, Drük and Riuna find themselves embroiled in their deadliest hunt. A war brews in the streets and alleys of Crow's Quarter. A fight for the fate of Delstad that will test the loyalties of mage and Magehunter alike.
