Under the rigid guidance of the Conclave; an order of holy men seeking to bring back the glory of the time of the gods, the Order of the Inquisition and their Prekhauten Guard divisions the seven hundred known worlds carve out a new empire with the compassion and wisdom the gods once offered. But a terrible secret, known only to the most powerful, threatens to undo three millennia of progress. The gods are not dead at all. They merely sleep. And they are being hunted. Senior Inquisitor Tolde Breed is sent to the planet Crimeat to investigate the escape of one of the most deadly beings in the universe. Amongeratix, one of the three sons of the god-king is loose once again, the fabled Three. Tolde arrives on a world where heresy breeds insurrection and war is only a matter of time. Tolde is aided by Sister Abigail of the Order of Blood Witches in his quest to find Amongeratix and return him to Conclave custody before he can begin his reign of terror. What he doesn’t know is that the Three are already operating on Crimeat. Each serves a different emotion: Vengeance, Sorrow and Redemption. Their touch drives the various characters beyond themselves and towards an uncertain future that can only end one of two ways. Either the Three win and finally destroy the gods, or humanity stops them and continues to survive.

Deep in the deserts a storm brews. The whirlwind has come to An'kuruku under the guise of false freedom. A Prophet has arisen. He is the voice for change, rebellion, and liberation from the Conclave. People flock to his call, all eager to hear his vision for the future. It is a downward spiral from which they cannot escape. The return of the Three has caused great carnage as their eternal battle for the soul of the universe continues. Beleaguered, the office of the Inquisitor General deploys Prekhauten Guard units to hunt down heretics and traitors in efforts to stop the coming war before it can begin. Tolde Breed is summoned with an important task. Hunt down and kill the heretic Inquisitor, Ursal Prowl. The quest will take him to the far reaches of the universe, to the hulking space station of Hawker's Gate where destiny awaits. There, together with a team of Prekhauten Guards, Tolde will witness the opening salvos of a conflict greater than any in human history. Traitors and heroes engage in conflicts across the universe as the Three make their opening moves in what promises to be their last confrontation. The war has begun. Humanity is the prize.

The war for the soul of the universe continues to widen. Friends become foes as they battle across a hundred worlds in the wake of the assassination of the Cardinal Seniorus. Awakened after 3000 years, the Three begin collecting heroes and villains to their causes. The final battle is coming. A battle that will leave the universe permanently scarred. The one man capable of stopping the war is lying on his deathbed, helpless to do anything. This 3rd installment of the Forgotten Gods Tales sweeps across the universe, from the desert world An'kuruku to the jungles of Kharsis. Good and evil manuever to be the lone power left standing in a titanic struggle for power millenia in the making.

Inquisitor Tolde Breed is summoned to the office of the Inquisitor General and given an unexpected task. Amongeratix, one of the Three, the sons of the gods, has escaped a Conclave prison and causing havoc in the known star systems. The Conclave knows that if Amongeratix is allowed to remain free he will plunge the universe into war. Tolde Breed must team with a detail of soldiers from the vaunted Prekhauten Guard in order to stop Amongeratix. But even that won't be enough. Should he fail, the Conclave will fall and chaos will rise.

The planet Rastarok has been forgotten by the universe for millennia, hidden by the powers that be for good reason. Deep in the heart of the world lies the strength for Amongeratix to take control of the seven hundred worlds and finish his long war with his brothers. Alone and missing his memory, the Penitent Man must come to terms with who he is and what he means to a universe gripped by civil war. It is a path he is loath to travel, for to discover his past is to accept the future. Under the direction of the Blood Witches, a motley assortment of criminals and warriors gathers to prevent Amongeratix from gaining control of this power. It is a mission doomed to fail unless they can set aside their differences and keep from killing each other along the way. The pieces are in play. Heroes and villains battle across the stars in a war no one understands, and all know must be won. Through Darkness Besieged is the latest installment of the Forgotten Gods Tales.
