Publisher's Synopsis
What truths will the trials of war reveal?
The battle at the fabled Gate continues to rage on as warriors from both sides fight with all they have to claim victory. Amid the fighting, new truths about the summoned heroes, the humans, demi-humans, and demons come to light. Even as they give their all in battle, kingdom politics and individual ambition clash against honor and duty, creating confusion and carnage on the battlefield. The demon forces surge forward with little regard for their own lives. Their only concern is to kill as many human soldiers as they can and find the summoned heroes. If they can find and kill a hero, glory and honor will raise their clans to the highest positions within their realm for generations to come. To the demons, the heroes have become nothing more than prey for their glorious hunt and who will be victorious in this hunt is anyone's guess. Battle, traitors, and death continue to stalk the battlefield. Who will survive the trials of war? How will it affect the summoned heroes?
