Countdown To Armageddon!
A new body in an old grave. An ancient family totem with an unknown glyph. And a sleeping horror that could destroy Dominia. All are pieces to a vast puzzle—a puzzle as mysterious and ancient as the secret society known as the Circle.
Cheyne, a young archaeologist with no past of his own, is determined to solve the ancient riddle before it’s too late. Aided only by his wits, an old music box, and several unexpected companions, Cheyne must find the Armageddon Clock—before time runs out and the angry Beast of the Hours wakes again.
