White Sand. Book 1. Time of Change

On the planet Taldain, one side of which basks in the rays of the relentless sun, while the other is forever plunged into darkness, live the masters of sand. By controlling the sand, they accomplish incredible feats: they erect huge buildings, engage in battles, and even fly.
Kenton is a willful and daring young man who believes not in talent, but in perseverance. Lacking outstanding abilities, he has long sought to prove to everyone around him that even he can achieve the highest rank among the masters of sand and become a master. But one day, people from a hostile clan kill his father and almost all of his comrades. Miraculously surviving the bloody massacre, Kenton is determined to uncover the truth about what happened. He has no doubt: someone weakened the masters of sand and convinced the enemies to attack at the most unexpected moment.
Could there be a traitor among his own?..
