The Alchemist's Cost By Kenneth Thomas What would you sacrifice to rewrite the laws of time itself? Orran Darrow was once hailed as the greatest alchemist of his age, a visionary who dared to dream of eternity. In his pursuit of immortality, he crafted the Elixir of Time, a creation so powerful it could unravel the tyranny of death. But when Orran drank the Elixir, it destroyed more than it created-it shattered his body, warped his mind, and left his legacy in ruins. Now, ten years later, he awakens to find a world unrecognizable and a chilling message: The Guilds are watching. Run. The Guilds-an empire forged from the ashes of Orran's ambition-rule with an iron fist, their alchemical constructs patrolling the streets and crushing dissent. Empowered by the secrets Orran left behind, the Guilds have enslaved entire regions, their dominance powered by the Eternal Core, an unstable alchemical engine capable of catastrophic destruction. Haunted by the betrayal of his apprentice, Rendall, who twisted his life's work into instruments of oppression, Orran faces a choice: flee into the shadows or reclaim the world he helped destroy. But dismantling the Guilds' empire is no simple task. To succeed, Orran must confront the ghosts of his past-his broken dreams, his failures, and the cost of his ambition. Joining forces with Leva, a rogue with her own score to settle, Orran plunges into a dangerous rebellion. Together, they must outwit relentless constructs, infiltrate Guild strongholds, and rally the oppressed against their seemingly invincible overlords. But as Orran delves deeper into the Guilds' machinations, he uncovers horrors even he never imagined-abominations born from his stolen research and a monster from his failed experiments that defies comprehension. At what cost does redemption come? The path to freedom demands sacrifice, and for Orran, it may mean facing Rendall in a final confrontation that will determine not only the fate of the Guilds, but the future of the world. As the Eternal Core teeters on the brink of implosion, Orran must decide: is he the savior who can undo the damage of his past, or the villain destined to see his creations consume the world? A breathtaking blend of steampunk, dark fantasy, and alchemical intrigue, The Alchemist's Cost is a gripping tale of ambition, betrayal, and redemption. With its intricate world-building, complex characters, and explosive action, this novel will leave you questioning the price of greatness and the power of second chances. Fans of Brandon Sanderson, V.E. Schwab, and Scott Lynch will find themselves spellbound by Kenneth Thomas's masterful storytelling. Perfect for Readers Who Love: * Characters grappling with moral dilemmas and personal redemption. * Fast-paced action set in a richly imagined steampunk world. * Villains who blur the line between ambition and tyranny. * Alchemical magic systems and intricate world-building. If you've ever wondered what it takes to challenge fate itself, The Alchemist's Cost will take you on a journey you'll never forget.
