In the Desert of Dudael, the demon Azazel is freed from the pit where he has dwelled for millennia. On the frozen world of Abyss, fallen angels banished from earth in the time of Enoch, prepare for their return.
But the world is vanishing. Soon there will be battleground for neither man nor demon.
Rick Scott has sworn off magic, but when he receives a summons from his former mentor, he must travel the ravaged wasteland of time and gaze into the mirror of eternity before the world plunges into the white-hot singularity of creation.
But there are creatures that dwell within time’s labyrinth who would sate their unspeakable hunger on the unwary traveler.

“Franz Kafka, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Gene Wolfe knew the secret to creating the essential sense of wonder that gives us engaging fantasy. Reality! Garrett Boatman’s The Mirror of Eternity holds a mirror to reality and it’s an unpredictable, dark funhouse mirror: dangerous illusion and awesome, shocking truth. No spoilers here—only the highest praise for the immersive and enveloping world(s) of (demon) Azazel and (human) Richard Scott, and an intriguing cast of many, all conjured up by Master Word Magician Garrett Boatman. The Mirror of Eternity is the best fantasy-thriller I’ve read in years.”
—Mort Castle, Three time Bram Stoker award winner, Editor, On Writing Horror
“In The Mirror of Eternity Garrett Boatman proves himself a true magician in the tradition of such visionaries as Clive Barker and Neil Gaiman. The climactic book of the Night Trilogy weaves threads of time travel, cosmic horror, and apocalyptic adventure around the core myths of the Western esoteric tradition. The resulting tapestry is a tour de force of philosophical dark fantasy unlike any you’ve read before.”
—Douglas Wynne, author of The Exorcism of Winchester House
“In this final volume of his Night Trilogy, Garrett Boatman spins a cast of demons and fallen angels, an ancient priest, a magical EMT, and a score of other fantastical characters into a harrowing and thrilling narrative that is far-reaching, frightening, learned, and above all highly entertaining. Fast-paced, dark, but also wonderfully humorous, The Mirror of Eternity is a thoughtful and well-wrought meditation on the eternal, epic struggle between good and evil, and the unlikely heroes that emerge victorious. A superb piece of fantasy fiction, and a furthering of Boatman’s unique literary vision.”
—Joshua Rex, author of The Inamorta and New Monsters
“Garrett Boatman’s The Mirror of Eternity will reflect your darkest fears and most sinuous of nightmares with biting, uncompromising clarity. Full of menacing monsters, meticulously crafted characters, and a veritable vortex of plot twists, this is one cosmic horror novel—labyrinthine and explosive—you do not want to miss.”
—Christa Carmen, Bram Stoker-nominated author of The Daughters of Block Island
“The Mirror of Eternity is a fast-paced, thrilling exploration of cosmic dark fantasy. Boatman’s crisp and clear writing style infuses equal parts action, magic, emotion, and intrigue into his storytelling.”
