Learn the Secret Skill-Become a Lightning Warrior Sagiron, a poor hunter and the worst swordfighter in the village, discovers a mysterious scroll. Hoping for adventure, he seeks to decipher it, but is told it's trash. When their village is attacked by rogues, Sagiron suffers a devastating loss. Determined to fight back, he seeks the aid of a local hermit known to be an ex-trainer. The scroll turns out to be a code to a long-lost Secret Skill-Salat Kata-a latent mental power. Turned overnight into an unmatched warrior capable of bending wills and wielding the Thunderblade, a lightning sword, he believes it can solve all his problems. But he couldn't be more wrong. A skill anyone can learn is a Pandora's Box, and soon he learns that only he can prevent it from falling into evil hands. The first book in the Chronicles of Metorm starts an intriguing adventure through the Antoric Universe, in a world where there are no true prophecies or chosen ones, but just opportunities and risks, and where anyone can become anything.
