Synopsis

"I stand before you in this place, and I walk towards you on this way. The way is old but the way is long, and the way is the way of power. Hear me -- hear me, and let the seal be broken!" The words of an ancient ritual, summoning a devastating power which could destroy the Chaos Gate itself. If First Magus Vordegh's insanity was to be stopped, the heretics knew that they must gain control of that power. This was the final gamble, and the odds against them were monstrous. But the rebels had a new ally in the heart of Chaos's own stronghold. One man, driven by one goad -- the craving for revenge. And for revenge's sake, he was ready to unleash an apocalypse that even the gods could not withstand... Book 3 of the Star Shadow Trilogy series
