The Second of Seven : A Novel

Military contractor, Abram Jacobson, is tasked with returning to the third dimension to prevent the Red Mage from crossing sides and obliterating all life in the seven dimensions. Unlike his first visit to the Third, Abram is assigned a small team to assist him. They cross over but barely a day goes by before his first teammate dies. Disaster follows Abram and his team at every turn, and certain doom looms on the horizon when they are told the Red Mage has already crossed to their home. Abram is granted precious little time to bathe in the magical arts of the Third in an attempt to save all life in the aggregate dimensions. Despite his newfound abilities, he soon realizes that the Red Mage's forces are too powerful to defeat using righteous tactics alone. With everything he values in jeopardy, Abram's darker side surfaces, demonstrating that he is capable of far viler things than he had ever imagined.
