The Scales of Sin & Sorrow

Xenoarchaeologist Mark Fortune defeated Earth's would-be warlord and claimed his reward–codes for a pre-collapse galactic portal network. When Mark and his new friend Tusk enter the portal, they cross untold lightyears in a single step and emerge in a gothic cathedral during an incomprehensible ritual. Swept into the middle of a simmering religious conflict where events dictate their enemies and allies, Mark and Tusk side with a masked vigilante and a posh madam against a demagogue bishop. Trapped in a city on the brink of civil war, Mark must make a deal with a vicious mob boss and overthrow a religious inquisition. If he fails, he and Tusk will never see Earth again. Will Mark face judgment or find redemption? The Scales of Sin & Sorrow is the second book in the Fortune Chronicles, Henry Vogel's homage to the pulps of yesteryear. Buy The Scales of Sin & Sorrow and open the portal to adventure!
