THE SUN IS DEAD.

Humanity has moved deep underground.

The Lightbringers have reinvented electricity.

Their presence offers reassurance.

But some believe it's safer in the shadows.

Aniya Lyons has never forgiven the Lightbringers for the abduction of her brother. She's overjoyed when he escapes and returns three years later, but he comes bearing a dark secret. Before he can share it with her, the Lightbringers steal him away again and murder their parents. Aniya is devastated, and she knows that she's next.

So Aniya plunges into the dark tunnels of the Web, where savages and mutated beasts lie in wait. She despairs that there is no safe place to hide, that she will be running for the rest of her life. But there is a glimmer of hope. If she can make it to the Lightbringers' Hub before they hunt her down, she may be able to sneak in and rescue her brother.

But the closer Aniya gets to the Hub, the closer she gets to discovering the horrible truth that led to the destruction of her family. The dark secret the Lightbringers would do anything to protect. And if she chooses to use this secret against them, it may carry unimaginable consequences and a great cost that Aniya may never be ready to pay.

This fast-paced dystopian novel is the first in David Webb's The Light Thief series.

"I just love it. He does an amazing job keeping track of his characters without it being overwhelming. The story is good and I think very creative. If you enjoyed Divergent, The Hunger Games, Maze Runner, etc., it's that quality. Just don't want it to end!"

"A riveting novel that held my attention to the end! The storyline and the character development was brilliant. A must read!"

"David Webb does an excellent job drawing the reader into the story . . . The Light Thief is a page turner and is difficult to put down. I look forward to reading the upcoming additions to this series and his future works."
