The Builder's Sword by J.A. Cipriano follows Arthur, an ordinary man whose purchase of an ancient blade strands him in a version of Hell that resembles a ruined, war-torn wasteland. This underworld is being consumed by a mysterious Darkness, and Arthur finds himself leading a small, predominantly female force in a desperate struggle for survival. His sword offers no flashy attacks of its own, instead granting him the ability to alter and enhance the powers of his allies, turning progression and strategy into his only real weapons. As the Darkness spreads, Arthur must adapt quickly, because the fall of Hell would mean Earth is next to be erased.
