Land of Night

Jacob Stanley

Beschreibung

Simone Copeland is no longer a human being. All she has to do to confirm that fact for herself is take a quick look in the mirror at the face that seems strangely unfamiliar now, or listen to the dark voice singing in her mind; urging her towards blood and death and domination of the weak; a voice that she has to fight every second just to prevent it from utterly devouring her soul.And if all that weren't bad enough, she's also been dragged into another world, a place that blurs the line between normal physical reality and the chaos at the center of all existence.It's a realm where strange creatures, both sublime and horrifying, walk among men; a realm where unimaginable evil is allowed to propagate without constraint in the name of stability and prosperity; a realm where dark, alien things swim in the cold depths and rule with the power of their minds.The people of this world want to make Simone into some sort of ruler, but she just wants to go home and get her old life back.She just wants to be a normal person again.And, though she doesn't know it, there are those who would like to help her, chief among them, Malcolm Thackery, an agent for an ancient and secret order; a man whose blood is crawling with demonic energy. Malcolm is searching for Simone, and there are all sorts of things standing in his way, terrible monsters that have already tried to kill him twice and nearly succeeded both times.But Malcolm has more tricks up his sleeve than most. He won't give up so easily. And he has help: a Goddess whose name echoes loudly in the legends of King Arthur and Merlin. She holds and distributes the Keys of Heaven - weapons of unimaginable power - and for reasons that Malcolm can't understand, she intends to put one of those dangerous devices directly into Simone's hands...
