The war has rules, ranks and rituals, and Scorch 5-5-2 has followed them all. Stationed on the front line of a fog-choked conflict, the squad is taught that belief is protection, obedience is survival, and doubt is dangerous.
But as the missions grow stranger and command's explanations thin, the certainty holding the war together begins to fracture. The fog hides more than the enemy, and the myths dismissed as propaganda start to feel uncomfortably close to the truth.
As ancient forces stir and the cost of blind faith becomes impossible to ignore, Scorch 5-5-2 must decide whether loyalty means holding the line or questioning everything they were taught to defend.
The Cost of Belief is a military fantasy novel that blends disciplined warfare with myth, moral tension, and the slow, unsettling realization that some truths are meant to stay buried.
