Chapter 1
As Lukas rolled out of the portal, he landed on his feet and took a good look around, all his senses primed for danger. The place hit him with its hot and stifled air and sulphurous stench, and a dozen memories, all bad.
Still he felt excited rather than afraid or lost in the past, not in the least because of the weight of the gun tucked in his b...
