Demon Gates (Nexus Wars Saga)is a story about a meek young son of a horse breeder who is suddenly thrust into a series of events that could easily shape the future of the world he lives in.The premise is the evil demons that once have ravaged the world have been locked away into the Void.  Ancient Loremasters managed to lock them in their prison, with formidable seals preventing the Portals from becoming active.  However, the seals are failing, and the demons have once again entered into the world to wreak havoc.Not being a big fan of darker fantasy, or demons for that matter :), I was very pleasantly surprised to find myself swept away in a story which was very expertly told, deftly weaving several storylines together with a skill that I truly envy.  The author has created an extensive world with believable characters, nasty creatures, and picturesque locales.For once, I don't have to wait a bit for the next book in the series to be released.  I know book two,Ashar'an Rising (Nexus Wars Saga), has been released.  I've already purchased it, and it's now sitting on my iPod, ready to go!This book is a tremendous read, at a very reasonable price.  I encourage everyone who loves fantasy to give it a try!  Robert, you're a helluva writer!
