Ancient Games — Scott Ciencin

Once Tom Keeper desired no more than to become a great painter. Now knowledge and power have set him on a different path--one that leads across a scourge-ravaged land into the darkest heart of the Realm of Shadows. For the natural orders have been disrupted. The ancient games are taking a cataclysmic turn. And a young artist, who has already survived the fall of a Heavenly City, must make one more great and tragic sacrifice--opening a doorway from his world into the terrifying Abyss to save a friend, a love...and the future.
