''The Broken Crescent'' is a fantasy novel by S.A. Swann. Nate Black spent his teens as the hacker Azrael, who could get in anywhere, crack any system, steal any data. When he turned 18, he purged all evidence of his connection to someone who'd broken any number of Federal laws. Then someone started sending him messages from a completely anonymous source, telling him that the Feds were on to him, and soon he would have to choose his path.
When the FBI shows up at his university classroom, Nate flees, into a mysterious shadow. He comes out to find himself on another world, where he doesn't know the language or culture, and his tall stature, pale skin and red hair stand out like a sore thumb among the small, dark locals.
Here, all the world is a crescent-shaped continent, ruled by the magi of the College of Man, and secondarily by the Monarch. The silent, inhuman Ghadi are slaves everywhere, among the ruins of the cities their kind once built, before a curse stole the capacity of language from their brains. The College rules through their knowledge of the Language of the Gods, which enabled their ancestors to strike down the Ghadi, but misuse can drive a wizard mad, or kill them.
Here, Nate is believed to be the prophesied Angel of Death, sent by the hated divinity Ghad, patron and creator of the Ghadi, to destroy the world and humanity. Some factions would destroy him, others would use him, but all fear him.
