Book Eight of the Chronicles of the Sundering Age
Creation is power.
Application is consequence.
Two young cousins—artifex mages—are about to change Rafe Blackmere’s world forever.
Nicknamed the Chaos Goblins, and with good reason, they refuse to treat magic as something rare or precious. Instead, they build it. Spell lances capable of silent kills at impossible range. Spell revolvers firing interchangeable elemental ampoules. Ammunition that turns magic into something reliable, scalable—and terrifyingly efficient.
For the first time, sorcery becomes design.
But even as new weapons are forged, a plea for aid arrives from the Windlands of the Verdic Orcs. The Nightrakes have struck. Zarrin assassins, led by the orc traitor Ash-Madra, believe the mountain fortress of Skarza-Khal is untouchable.
They are wrong.
Rafe Blackmere does not come to negotiate. He comes to end a war.
With orc warlords at his side, bonded wardens at his back, and weapons capable of killing from beyond sight, Rafe unleashes a siege unlike anything the world has ever seen. Walls crumble. Priests vanish in silence. Night-spawn burn to dust.
But victory always demands payment.
As the battle descends into blood, domination, and fire, Rafe is forced to confront what he is becoming—not merely a mage, but a force capable of reshaping entire worlds.
Skarza-Khal will fall.
The only question is who survives it.
An erotic, adult fantasy where magic, power, and intimacy are inseparable—written for readers who crave fierce women, slow-burn seduction, and the thrill of desire forged in steel and flame.
