It is 1220 AD, and the gears of the Albigensian Crusade grind on. When an alien spacecraft infested with a horde of bloodthirsty predators crash-lands in the remote wilderness of the French Pyrenees, a small band of Crusaders and a Cathar heretic are all that stand between God's Kingdom and Hell on Earth.
Lake of Fire is a genre-bending blend of historical fiction and sci-fi, a breathless thriller that explores the duality of faith: how it leads men to commit unspeakable horrors and how it gives them courage and hope in the face of the same.
