Publisher's Synopsis
"The mountains became plains, and the seas boiled into deserts."
So went the earth.
First came the World War, humanity's suicide. Then came the War against Hell, humanity's redemption. Esther, the Eternal One, led the way from darkness to light. A new order, by her will.
So went civilization.
For a time. But as history fades and the Eternal One's yoke tightens, man turns upon man once more. Ancient dreams of independence rise in Cathedral's shadow. Bastion's vengeance awakens. War beckons.
And Hell is watching.
