Beschreibung

As the winter solstice approaches, so does the final battle of an age-old war in this third novel of the landmark literary fantasy series. 
 
The would-be historian and author Pierce Moffett has moved from New York to the Faraway Hills, where he seems to discover—or rediscover—a path into magic, past and present. Meanwhile, single mother Rosie Rasmussen grapples with her mysterious uncle's legacy and her young daughter Samantha’s inexplicable seizures. And for Pierce's lover Rose Ryder, another path unfolds: she’s drawn into a cult that promises to exorcise her demons.  
 
It is the dark of the year, between Halloween and the winter solstice, and the gateway is open between the worlds of the living and the dead. A great cycle of time is ending, and Pierce and Rosie, Samantha and Rose Ryder must take sides in an epic conflict that is approaching its ultimate confrontation . . . Or is it?  
 
Dæmonomania is a journey into the very mystery of existence: what is, what went before, and what could break through at any moment in our lives. It follows The Solitudes and Love & Sleep, both of which were included in Harold Bloom’s Western Canon.
