Thirteen-year-old Joey has always known hunger-but nothing could prepare him for what awaits beyond it.
With war creeping ever closer to their struggling town and no work left to be found, Joey's mother makes a desperate choice: she sends him to Lapidius, a distant schoolhouse rumored to offer food, shelter, and safety. But when Joey arrives, he discovers the truth-Lapidius isn't a sanctuary. It's a secretive military institute training children for combat.
Alongside hundreds of other recruits (like battle buddy Maisie), Joey is thrust into a world where survival means mastering more than weapons. At Lapidius, war isn't fought with weapons alone-it's waged with ancient magic, deadly creatures, and shadowy forces that defy logic.
As Joey uncovers the dark secrets behind the school's purpose, he realizes that the greatest danger might not be the battlefield ahead, but what's lurking within the walls of Lapidius itself.
Perfect for fans of Ender's Game and Shadow and Bone, Lapidius is a gripping tale of sacrifice, survival, and the hidden power of the underestimated.

Novum Albion had been the melting pot of the world, where cultures, intellect, ideas, and even freedom defined the young nation. Yet, many no longer had the hope that once defined Novum Albion. Sadly, inspiration and confidence drained from the land. Hope became nothing more than feeble happiness, and happiness turned to selfish desires. Selfish desires turned to greed, and greed turned into numbness to life. Many citizens of Novum Albion were trapped in their own minds, yet they were still filled with pride, though they accomplished nothing.As the young of the land grew ignorant of their identity and their past, the very fiber of the home started to unwind, and uncertainty and ignorance in every aspect of life began to grow. Thus Lapidius, a martial institute for children, found a place among the offspring of the compromised nation. And though it would be hard for some to think a school could be home for its students, it was just that for many. N° de réf. du vendeur 00105352083
