Book Cover

“All that is gone now. Even if the people survive, and the demons don’t just slaughter us all. That budding spirit of independence will end.”

Sanctum of the Archmage: Dawn of Chaos - Book 2, Part III

A new constitution prepares Carlissa for an era of enlightenment. The harsh traditions of the past fade, and a promise of freedom stirs the air.

In the space of one terrifying day, that promise is shattered in a bloodbath of fire and magic.

In Hell Gate III: The Massacre of Lannamon, the people of Carlissa fight a desperate battle for survival. But with the Archmage still missing, their hopes wane in the face of the advancing demon horde.


An ancient enemy returns with the opening of the Hell Gate. Chaos reigns as the people rally to fight a desperate battle for survival, and many wonder bitterly why the gods seem to have abandoned them. Their only hope lies with the magic of the Archmage — and his, with a free-spirited princess who never wanted to rule. She must find the strength to set aside her bard’s calling and take up a battle against impossible odds, or surrender her land and people to the Black Magus and his demons.
