Druids Sword (66 page)
1377…and the Archangel Michael sends Brother Thomas Neville on a mission across Europe to find the means to thrust the demons on earth back beyond the doorway of Hell.
As Neville comes closer and closer to finding the casket which hides the most terrible secrets of the Church, he begins to realise the casket might release a greater horror than the one he wishes to thrust back into hell.
England is reeling under supernatural plagues and treachery-driven rebellions and mankind’s fate rests on the outcome of three battles.
A journey through ancient labyrinthine secrets. An epic four-book series spanning 3,000 years and the history of one of the world’s greatest cities—London.
A shadow is looming over the great hot southern land of Ashdod. It is the shadow of Threshold, the pyramid which the Magi of Ashdod are building to propel them into Infinity.
But something is waiting in Infinity. Waiting for the final glass plate to be laid, waiting for the capstone to be cemented in blood…waiting to use Threshold to step from Infinity into Ashdod!
Deep beneath the seas of Escator lie the Veins—rich gloam mines worked by men sentenced to die in the darkness.
Garth, an apprentice to his father, accompanies him for the first time on his annual journey to the Veins to tend the forgotten miners, as all physicians must do. He knows that these doomed and barely-remembered men have experienced unimaginable despair and pain, but nothing could prepare him for what he encountered.
