Infernal Games

In the aftermath of a devastating war against supernatural forces, the Knights Templar are a broken order. Echo Team has been cut in half, and its former commander, Cade Williams, returns from a harrowing journey into the Beyond a hollowed version of himself. When the Necromancer Simon Logan engineers a daring prison break and vanishes, the battered team must reconstitute under new leadership to hunt him down. Logan, however, refuses to be the prey, striking at the one wound that might finally wake Cade from his stupor.

The full-cast production gives this installment a cinematic density that suits its ensemble of knights, villains, and supernatural forces. Terence Aselford, David Coyne, Nora Achrati, and the rest of the ensemble bring sharp individual voices to a story that moves between action and grief with surprising emotional weight. At under four hours, the pacing is relentless, and the audio format amplifies the tension of each confrontation. Listeners familiar with the Templar Chronicles will find this fourth entry raises the personal stakes considerably.
