Blight drakes. If it had fangs or fed on fear, Rip hunted it, bagged it, and moved on. But time is a curse even legends can’t outrun. The years have gnawed at his mind like the beasts he once caged. And now, Rip has vanished into the Terrorscape, a nightmare dimension stitched together from the darkest corners of reality to chase one final monster.
