Dark Gods is a short fantasy series from Vaughn Heppner that steps away from his usual science fiction territory. Set in a medieval world of crusades and mythical creatures, the two books bring Heppner’s military storytelling instincts to a sword-and-sorcery setting.
Dark Crusade focuses on a holy war gone wrong, while The Dragon Horn expands the world with dragon mythology. Readers who know Heppner for his space operas may be surprised by this detour into fantasy, but the fast pacing and large-scale battles remain.
