"No matter what," she said, "tomorrow ends with blood." Adrien's master plan has been revealed and the battle lines are drawn. With the ashes of the Boulevard still hanging in the air, Hannah and team must race to prepare their ragtag army before the full might of Arcadia descends upon them. While Karl works to whip his troops into shape, Parker invades the belly of the beast, and Hannah and Ezekiel head on diverging paths to seek help.

Hannah killed those who destroyed her family, but the man who ordered their deaths is still alive - and in power. It's time someone worked to end Adrien's evil rule. But to find justice, Hannah needs to increase her skills. She and Sal head to the Heights for a little one-on-one training with a handsome young mystic while Ezekiel heads north to right a 40-year-old wrong. Meanwhile, Parker is stuck dealing with the mess left behind after Hannah's ass-kicking.

Thousands of years ago, ancient deities fought a civil war that nearly destroyed the earth. They were defeated by a great warrior - and banished to spend eternity beyond the reach of the humans who once served them. Their war is raging once again, and once again it will require a great hero to save humanity. Unfortunately for humanity, I’m that hero.

My name’s Vic Stratton, and I’m on a mission to kill the gods. But first I have to find them. Thanks to my new friend SplitScreen, I got a tip about shady government activity in the middle of Nowhere, Oregon. But what seems to be a wild goose chase soon descends into utter madness when I’m hunted by a one-armed god of war and his horde of rampaging followers. And if they don’t kill me first, I may just start breaking jaws in this backward town. What’s with these locals anyways? It’s like they don’t want me to discover the truth.

Delano, man turned Apprenti turned god-eater, has staked his claim on our world, and he’s calling all gods and monsters to his side. There’s nowhere for mankind to run and nowhere to hide. We either fight now or bow to his will forever. And there’s no way in heaven or hell I’m going to bow to scum like him. My name is Vic Stratton. I have a team. I have a plan. I have the freaking sword of the gods at my side. But am I ready to save the world?

I’m Vic Stratton, and I can survive anything the Forgotten throw at me. But I can’t say the same for those who look to me for protection. In fact, they’re a bit of a mess. Hunted by the gods and dogged by their minions, with a serial killer hidden among our ranks, the New York City exiles stand little chance out on the open road. Good thing we’re not alone. My team of unlikely allies and I must find a place to hide the survivors before they become victims like the rest.

The gods have descended on New York, and all hell has broken loose. Apparently, they have big plans for the weekend, but I have a feeling it doesn’t include taking in a Broadway show. With three gods angling for control and the Forgotten battling it out on every street corner, I want nothing more than to save as many souls as possible and get the hell out of town.

Vampires are overrunning my city. The FBI is on my tail. And the god of darkness wants to meet with me. Just another day in the life of a hero. Luckily, this time, I’m not alone. God in the Darkness is the explosive conclusion to the first arc of The Forgotten Gods series. Follow Vic Stratton and her team of powerful allies as they struggle to save this world from the evil gods who want nothing more than to rule it.

Okay, so I accepted Kronin’s call to defeat the Forgotten Gods and save the earth, but don’t thank me yet. Just because I’m on the job doesn’t mean it will be easy - even with the Gladius Solis at my side and the power of Carcerum coursing through my veins. The problem is that the Forgotten aren’t your run-of-the-mill villains. They’re, well, gods…which means they’re violent, powerful, and crafty as hell, and all manner of human scum is flocking to their side. Along with my vampire problems, strange beauties have started appearing throughout the country.

Hannah and Ezekiel dig deeper into the corruption of the Noble Quarter, and the sick truth of Adrien’s master plan becomes clear. They need to call upon the diverse group of those loyal to the cause in order to stop the Chancellor’s reign of terror--before any more innocents die by his hand. Meanwhile, Karl and Parker enlist a powerful ally to help them battle against the Prophet’s lies, and Gregory prepares for something far more dangerous than battle--a formal ball at his parent’s house.
