Demons and Steel

A grim and uncompromising dark fantasy from the LitRes bestseller author “Empire of the Milky Way”!

The last days are coming in the Ardean Empire—the once mighty state is dying under the invasion of a mysterious force that turns the land into barren wastelands, where terrifying monsters live. From bottomless caves, pestilential winds blow, and at the highest point in the eternal zenith, the pale Sun of the Dead barely flickers.

A demon-possession epidemic covers the few cities of the survivors. Dark cults of the old gods raise their heads again, and along with refugees from the north, hunger creeps into people’s homes.

This is a story about two boys who will have to walk a difficult and bloody path of growing up—to become the ones who make decisions about the fates of the world, which is desperately balancing on the edge of destruction.

A story of boys who understood too early that the Age of Masks has arrived—an era when demons and steel rule.
