Full synopsis of The Exodus Gate

Benedict Darwin, host of a popular late night radio show that deals with the paranormal, comes into possession of a virtual reality simulator that turns out to be something far greater and more powerful than he ever expected.

Supernatural powers from the Abyss and their human allies are working tirelessly to bring about a One World Government.  They have found a way to bridge the boundaries of time and space, seeking to bring back the Nephilim, the monstrous offspring of Fallen Avatars and humans who were destroyed in a Great Flood that occurred long ages ago. 

On the verge of enslaving the entire world, the vast forces within the Abyss under their proud and defiant ruler Diabolos are more powerful than ever before, and they hunger to shake the foundations of Heaven itself.  A Convergence of unprecedented proportions is well underway, as meticulously designed plans from malevolent otherworldly powers, set into motion at the foundation of the world, begin to unfold. 

In the face of this rising storm, other powers begin to come together to resist.  A most unlikely group begins to form, including high school student Seth Engel and his friends, who witness pony-sized wolves during a hike in a forest where wolves have not been seen in decades, to Benedict, his niece Arianna, and even souls existing within the afterworld.  The Exodus Gate sets in motion many new forces and unexpected allies that are not going to allow their world and those beyond to fall without a fight.

An epic tale of courage and adventure, with fantastical realms and exotic creatures, The Exodus Gate is the first adventure in the Rising Dawn Saga.
