What is this book about?
Their first refuge begins with the man sent to kill them.
After defying the Unified Government and fleeing Gaea, Alexander Eldred, Imara Inanna, and Sirenī Adamma land on Earth with an unexpected problem: Jack Carter, the elite soldier tasked with killing them all.
Carter expected to eliminate the Three or die trying. Instead, he’s become their ally.
On Earth, the fugitives find shelter with Jordan McInerney and Richard Bryson, whose family history is already tangled with the Three in ways no one else understands. What begins as sanctuary soon becomes something warmer and far more vulnerable: a fragile new home built around trust, magic, and the uneasy possibility of belonging.
But Earth is not untouched by the darkness spreading through the Ring of Worlds. Old forces are moving. Hidden enemies are watching. And Carter’s choice to stand with the people he was sent to destroy may change all their lives.
The Three escaped one world. Now they must learn what awaits them on another one.
The Sorcerer’s Gambit is the second book in The Ring of Worlds, an expansive LGBTQ+ science-fantasy saga of ancient magic, interdimensional danger, diverse heroes, found family, queer devotion, and cosmic consequences. The books build directly on one another and are best read in order.
