Beyond the Black Gate

Craig Smiley lives. Transported to a mythical realm beyond the Black Gate, Smiley has been betrayed by the very gods he once served. Now, he has only one recourse: to kill the very gods that made him. At first, the idea seems impossible, but with every life he claims Smiley draws one step closer to his insane goal. In their desperation to stop Smiley, the gods turn to a power they do not fully understand... Beyond the Black Gate is the fifth epic instalment of The Book of Thrice Dead. A six part multiverse apocalypse, uniquely blending of science fiction, fantasy and horror. Think King's Dark Tower meets Clive Barker's The Great and Secret Show.Praise for the series:
