In a caste-bound city where birth dictates destiny, a foundling's discovery of his noble lineage ignites a revolution that challenges the very foundations of society.
In the slums of Westburg, Ash is a Bottom, a beggar and scavenger of garbage heaps, a survivor in a city that deems some lives worthless. Abandoned at birth, he has no future and even fewer dreams. But a single act of bravery - saving a young administrator from an assassin - changes everything.
Ash discovers he's not just another forgotten foundling. He's Jason Redgrave, the illegitimate son of Alice Redgrave, a powerful administrator, and Harker Haroldson, the Duke's only surviving son. Now a target of his murderous father, Jason must flee the only city he's ever known with the help of a family he never knew he had.
On the run from Harker's minions, Jason must grapple with his newfound identity, deadly conspiracies, and a question that refuses to be silenced: Can someone born in the ashes of the caste system rise high enough to change it?
The Foundling: Heir of Ash and Blood is a gripping tale of class injustice, identity, survival, and vengeance, with the promise of an epic transformation from outcast to revolutionary. Perfect for fans of Red Rising, An Ember in the Ashes, and Mistborn, this emotionally resonant novella is recommended for readers who enjoy gritty realism with a deep emotional core.
