About this audiobook

Imeriya was once a world of wonder, magic, and mystery. But the heavens and earth wept as the disciples of Darkness ultimately triumphed over Light, plunging Imeriya and the universe into an unholy Age of Armageddon. Now, two hundred years later, the Emperor of the Dead, Vra, has subjugated the entire globe and re-christened the planet as Gothos. And nowhere in this horrifying world can one escape the soulless gaze of the black skull of Vra. Across this ashen hellscape, merciless blood-lords rule over lands of death and suffering while ghost ships haunt the high seas in search of human flesh and bone to feed the unholy appetites of the Emperor and his minions. The last vestiges of humanity crawl about in the shadow of eternal darkness like vermin – a once too-proud race now poised on the brink of extinction. Today, four mortal refugees commence their terrifying descent into a nightmare world that died two centuries ago. And with them rests the last hope for all mankind.
