Embark on an epic saga of courage and rebellion with Hell Holes: Insurrection, the electrifying sequel to Hell Holes: A Slave’s Revenge, the prequel of Donald Firesmith’s acclaimed Hell Holes series.
The Armageddon war takes a drastic turn as Earth’s military executes a desperate strategy: releasing a lethal plague carefully designed to decimate the demon ranks, followed by using a tactical nuclear bomb to obliterate Hell’s sole interstellar portal complex. But this bold counteroffensive comes with a heavy cost: tens of thousands of human and alien slaves are left stranded with their fates uncertain.
Amidst the ensuing chaos, a former gladiator rises to lead the enslaved masses in an insurrection against their demonic masters. The narrative delves into the complexities of forging alliances across a multitude of alien cultures, all united by a common goal: to eliminate the demons and forge a new society rooted in justice and liberty.

Author’s Commentary
Because the nuclear bomb destroyed Hell’s portal complex at the end of Hell Holes: A Slave’s Revenge, thousands of human and alien slaves were marooned on the planet. It seemed natural to wonder what happened to these slaves. Did the demon plague virus decimate the demons to the point where the slaves could successfully revolt? If so, how would this revolt take place.
The story is in many ways reminiscent of Spartacus’s slave revolt against the Romans. Would my Spartacus rise to the challenge of having greatness thrust upon him? Unlike with Spartacus, what would happen when the insurrection succeeded.
