Synopsis

Ygorla, a demon sorceress with an unearthly magic, has become the ruler of the world. Strann and Karuth, who have both suffered under her, must decide whether to serve her or live under the harsh rule of the Lords of Order. The final book of the Chaos Gate trilogy follows their attempt to find a way out of that choice as the gods of both sides press the matter.

Neighbouring works

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.

  • Internal chronology, within Time Master (World of Chaos and Order): position 10 of 12: previous The Master (1987) · next Moonset (1995)
