Tasarian, Gatemaster

Brian Holliday never bargained for this. He buys a dilapidated farm in Vermont, just looking for a simpler lifestyle. Instead, when he explores a cave on his new property he stumbles across a gateway to another world. As he explores this new place he is confronted by a civilization ruled by swords and kings, where magic has changed many of the natural laws he's come to rely on, and a wilderness that includes elves and dwarves and other strange beings.
Worse than that, he finds himself drawn into an ancient legend that might force him to sacrifice everything he's gained in his home world, or deny the responsibility and ultimately cause the destruction of both. If he accepts the task, he'll have to decide who from his world will help him to win the battle that is brewing over control of the gate, or find a way to close it before the fighting begins.
