The Wandsmith: Crucible by D Stahl

This book is a premium first copy, similar to the original but not the original.

Earthlings cannot awaken o Humans cannot evolve o Mortals cannot slay gods. Such truths as these shatter when Ori Suba escapes an infernal prison hidden halfway across Fate. To return home, Ori must battle monsters, master the arcane, and form dangerous alliances with supernatural beings. Through harrowing trials, his unique Affinity awakens, one potent enough to disrupt Fate’s delicate balance and usher in a new age. As an Irregular walking the Path, and an Entity of Power capable of granting patronage to warlocks, Ori must weigh his desires against the needs of his bonds and the man he must become.
