Hell's Gate

They thought they knew how the universes worked — THEY WERE WRONG! Inthe almost two centuries since the discovery of the first inter-universal

portal, Arcana has explored scores of other worlds... all of them duplicates of

their own. Multiple Earths, virgin planets with a twist, because the

''explorers'' already know where to find all of their vast, untapped natural

resources. Worlds beyond worlds, effectively infinite living space and mineral

wealth. And in all that time, they have never encountered another intelligent

species. No cities, no vast empires, no civilizations, and no equivalent of

their own dragons, gryphons, spells, and wizards. But all of that is about to

change. It seems there's intelligent life elsewhere in the multiverse. Other

human intelligent life, with terrifying new weapons and powers of the mind...and

wizards who go by the strange title of ''scientist.''
