Queen of Decay
(2026)(The second book in the Chronicles of the Godslayers series)
A novel by Matthew Gillies
Decay is spreading across the Realm. Ancient queens stir beneath the earth, daemonic corruption blooms in the cities, and the Dark Gods whisper that the Age of Mortals is reaching its end.
The Godslayers are fractured but not broken.
Frost hunts the Empire’s agents across the continent.
Astrid fights to keep her past buried — a truth that could shatter alliances and ignite a war if it ever comes to light.
Andromeda begins to uncover the dangers of her own existence, her power growing in ways she cannot control or understand.
Elyria’s past rises from the shadows, threatening to tear the group apart.
And across the sea, the last heir of Adaiya remains hidden from the Empire’s reach—her survival a threat powerful enough to fracture nations.
In Ambrosial, an army of revenants gathers to break the obsidian tomb of their imprisoned queen—an ancient power whose return reality itself would recoil from. Belovodyne’s forces swell with clans long divided, united only by hunger, vengeance, and the promise of their Queen’s rebirth. Their march toward the Black Pyramid threatens to ignite a war that could drown the continent in blood.
To stop them, the Godslayers must descend into a world already half‑claimed by ruin—where loyalty shatters, truth cuts deeper than steel, and every victory feeds the darkness rising beneath their feet.
