The Battle of Euangelion: Reborn by S Steyn

Synopsis of the book: Humanity’s future is tucked away in a wretched prison world. A home to deviant rebels who once betrayed the very magic they were created with. Old magic. This story more or less hinges on old magic and those it emanates from. It’s an extremely pure and powerful kind of magic, but also peculiar. As pure as it is, it allowed, for instance, a jealous and spiteful rebel to spearhead mutiny against a father - a King who had the audacity to gift his only son and heir with a Realm of his own. A catastrophic civil war followed and contributed to the downfall of the Prince’s young world and all its inhabitants. Their original greatness was doomed to ebb away as darkness gradually took over.

Alexis Sharp is numbered among the newest recruits. Quick to temper and slow to listen, she must learn to find her place and way on the mystical Isle of Sanctum where humans enjoy immunity and immortality as they prepare for war. The forces in the neighboring Realm of Nullius Terram aren't stagnant either. On the contrary, they’re proliferating. The veil between Nullius Terram and the Kingdom of Euangelion still stands in the exiled Diabolus' way, but for how long? This war is written in destiny, and if there’s anything we know about destiny it’s that you can’t outrun, outsmart, or even outwait it. A secret quest in search of a mysterious artifact intertwines with the discovery of the Prophecy. A human bloodline is implicated, and a Chosen One is named. Alexis and her unlikely friends hang in the balance as they try to navigate through an impossible mission.
