Publisher Description
When an undead motorcycle gang attacks Denver’s sorcerers, only one person can decipher the cryptic clues left behind—Dru Jasper, proprietor of the Crystal Connection and newly minted sorceress. Though Dru has learned how to harness the powers of her crystals, she’s in over her head. A necromancer is using forbidden sorcery to fulfill the prophecy of the apocalypse and bring about the end of the world. Dru’s only chance to stop him requires tracking down her would-be boyfriend, hot rod mechanic and half-demon Greyson. Everyone thinks he’s dead, but Dru believes he’s still alive, and finding him is the key to unraveling this evil. To learn the truth behind the necromancer’s attacks, Dru must team up with her friends, and maybe even an enemy or two. Only Rane’s brawn, Opal’s wisdom, and Salem’s spells can help her infiltrate the necromancer’s hidden lair, stop the prophecy, and save the world. But they need to do it fast before legions of the undead rise to consume the souls of everyone on earth. . . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
MacNaughton's delightful second apocalyptic urban fantasy picks up just days after the events of It Happened One Doomsday, in which newly minted crystal sorceress Dru and her friends defeated the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, staving off a plan for world destruction. Greyson, a very reluctant Horseman and Dru's romantic interest, is presumed dead until Dru sees the taillights of his car, Hellbringer, speeding off into the distance. She begins a series of reckless attempts to find him, interspersed with fighting larger battles. The undead are now walking the earth, which means the fifth of the seven seals on the apocalypse scroll has been broken. Complicating matters, a sorcerer from Dru's past makes a very surprising appearance. Adventure and humor help to balance the story's horror elements. The ending provides just enough resolution to be satisfying while leaving plenty of questions unanswered to heighten anticipation for the next installment.
