In a dark vision of the future, where some humans (alphas) have developed abilities, thirteen-year-old Sebastian's life is about to change.
Sebastian thinks he is just an ordinary alpha off to join the Academy to refine his skills, but 'the test' shows something different. It turns out he is a Hybrid—a Quad-brid to be exact—and will grow up to be the most powerful alpha in more than two thousand years.
Forced to join the Dark side of the Academy, Sebastian faces fear, rejection, and brutality. Making some unlikely friends and finding adventure, he strives to keep to the Light. However, in a final twist, unsure of who to trust, and what is real, Sebastian is faced with the ultimate decision of whether to embrace the Darkness . . .
