Chronicles of the Black Gate

The Chronicles of the Black Gate is an epic fantasy series set in a world threatened by a war fueled by forbidden sorcery. The Ascendant Empire is on the brink of destruction as Agerastian heretics seek to sever the ancient portals that unite it.

The series follows Asho, a squire with a mysterious past, Lady Kyferin, and their followers as they navigate political machinations and face dangers from both the empire and the heretics. Their survival hinges on forging alliances and uncovering lost secrets, including the truth behind the Black Gates and an ancient curse. They are pitted against forces that are trying to undermine or destroy that which has stood for centuries.

As they fight for survival and seek to defend Mythgraefen Hold, they must embrace newfound powers and confront both demons and a rising darkness. A prequel novella, Escape from Bythos, reveals how Asho became Kyferin's squire and offers additional insight into the world.
