Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Maeve Hawthorne climbs the deadly Ashen Pass carrying a relic her dying father claims can save him. At the summit she discovers the truth: the "mountain" is Aethel-Kaelen, a five-hundred-foot primordial titan bound for ten thousand years as the World-Anchor of Sol-Aethel.Maeve strikes the titan with the Siphon-Brand, expecting only a spark of vitality. Instead, the weapon tears his entire True Name from the mountain and forces it into her mortal body. Aethel-Kaelen collapses into an eight-foot, bleeding man who calls himself Ronan Blackwell, while the continent begins to fracture.Pursued by the empire's Pale Chorus, Maeve and Ronan flee through the wilderness. Maeve learns that Damien Whitmore, the father she trusted, deliberately shaped her for this purpose. He is a Grand Inquisitor who manipulated her into becoming a vessel. Worse, Maeve discovers that her own past is a lie. Her hidden True Name is Morvassa, an ancient sovereign whose history with Ronan reaches beyond the empire itself.When the Sovereign's Maw opens and the Void begins swallowing the capital, Maeve and Ronan descend into the Chamber of First Runes. There they face Damien's final betrayal: he intends to siphon the World-Anchor from Maeve and claim its power. The confrontation destroys his machinery and ends him in the collapse of stolen forces.But saving the realm demands an impossible sacrifice. The True Name cannot remain divided between Maeve and Ronan. If Maeve returns it, Ronan will become the World-Anchor again, while Maeve will lose every name she has carried and dissolve into ash. Ronan refuses to accept her death.Maeve returns the primordial Name, saving Sol-Aethel and restoring Ronan to his colossal form. She becomes Hollow Flesh and begins to disappear. Yet Ronan chooses to relinquish the ancient burden rather than remain an eternal beast chained beneath the world. The mountain peels away, the cosmic weight compresses, and the titan transforms again-not into a god, but into a living man.Maeve awakens whole and mortal, while Ronan stands beside her with blood in his veins and footprints in the earth. The empire's hierarchy of sovereign brands is broken, and the survivors must learn to live without enslaved gods beneath their foundations.A Giant Without a Name is an epic dark-fantasy tale of stolen identities, ancient magic, oppression, sacrifice, and redemption. At its heart is a question: if a name can define a life, can choosing who you become finally set you free?
