Hell Gate

Sanctum of the Archmage: Dawn of Chaos, Book 2

Hell Gate is the second book in the Dawn of Chaos Trilogy.

This post will serve as a “Table of Contents” for Hell Gate as it is published to Substack. Links will be added below as its chapters and scenes become available. Feel free to bookmark and use this post to navigate and keep track of its progress.

“There’s no way to win against a force like this. There’s nowhere to run, and no way to escape. The entire world will be taken.”

A new constitution prepares Carlissa for an era of enlightenment. The old order fades, 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.

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.
