The Last Man - Book one of the Leybound series

Once, they called him the last man. Now, after twenty years of war, Nathaniel Riot is little more than a relic—discarded, betrayed, and sentenced to die. Offered a grim choice between the noose and the path of the damned, Riot chooses the only option left: become Leybound. Infused with raw, untamed leypower, Riot must carve his own path in a world that refuses to make room for him. He’ll grind his way to mastery, uncovering the hidden depths of his magic, forging uneasy alliances, and taking on those who would see him broken. Because power is the only law that matters, and if he wants to rise, he’ll have to take it. The war isn’t over. And neither is he.
