Greatness demands sacrifice.

Council Academy all-star Seth Wright has spent years training for the Killing Fields, where humanity wages an endless war against demons. But his first encounter with the real thing reveals a devastating truth: for all his victories, the Academy never taught him how to survive.

When Seth turns to veteran demon hunter Astral Daamon for help, they uncover something far worse than corruption. The Academy Games were never designed to prepare students for war. And something ancient beneath the Academy is waiting to collect what it is owed.

Hunter’s Gambit is currently being released through Patreon. Free members can read the first two full chapters; the continuing story is available to Hunter members.
