Our sweat and our blood and our toil speak our grit.

To the Strong, to the Strong, to the Strong."

Under the iron rule of the Revelayshun, one boy discovers the truth.

When the Revelayshun murders his pa, Wil discovers through savage inquisition that he’s marked as a Heater, one of the old-time heretics who burned up the world.

Dark, powerful and heartbreaking, Children Of The Furnace compels with a uniquely stunning world and one of the greatest characters you’ll ever be afraid for.
