The Universe is on the brink of war and the fate of all organic life is linked to the Thirteen Masters who have not been seen or heard from in over 200 000 years. The ancient scriptures reveal that certain souls are critical keys to the path of light, balance, and spiritual awakening, but the galaxy as a whole has lost its way. Corruption, greed, violence, treachery, and abuse of power are rife. The immortal Elven Queen, the atheist human commander, the peaceful Setaran King, the rebellious female Karain warrior, the compassionate hybrid assassin and the lethal black dragon are all intrinsically linked with IIION - the mysterious soul that is out of time, out of place and out for vengeance in a tapestry of CHAOS which will either renew the Universe or destroy it.

Cursed by God, hunted by demons, desired by Cain and Abel... All in a day's work. For Evangeline Hollis, a long ago fling with a bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks just became a disaster of biblical proportions. One night with a leather-clad man of mystery has led to a divine punishment: the Mark of Cain. Thrust into a world where sinners are drafted into service to kill demons, Eve's learning curve is short. A longtime agnostic, she begrudgingly maneuvers through a celestial bureaucracy where she is a valuable but ill-treated pawn. She's also become the latest point of contention in the oldest case of sibling rivalry in history... But she'll worry about all that later. Right now she's more concerned with learning to kill while staying alive. And saving the soul she'd never believed she had ... in S.J. Day's Eve of Darkness.

These volumes are print compilations of of the popular online comic The Order of the Stick! plus pages of never-before-seen bonus stories and material. Taking place in a magical world that loosely operates by the rules of 3.5 edition Dungeons and Dragons, the comic follows the sometimes farcical exploits of six adventurers as they strive to save the world from an evil lich. Much of the comic's humor stems from these characters either being aware of the game rules that affect their lives or having anachronistic knowledge of modern culture, which in turn is often used by the author to parody various aspects of role-playing games and fantasy fiction.
