The Stranger plans on opening a gateway to the nether realms and releasing the Elder Gods to bring forth Chaos on Earth. Only one man knows the truth, a country mage whose family has fought The Stranger before. But can he defeat his ageless enemy before Hastings Mills is nothing but a devastated, smoking ruin and the townspeople become unwilling blood sacrifices to the Old Ones? With only the help of a young woman and her teenage brother, he will have to use all his arcane knowledge to thwart his adversary and prevent the final apocalypse from becoming a reality.In Hastings Mills, The Burning Time has arrived.
