Since the beginning of time, the heavenly angelic army and hordes of demons from the depths of the Underworld have been waging an endless battle for the fate of all things. Now this battle has unfolded in the mortal realm... and no one - neither man, nor demon, nor angel - can stay away... Darrick Lang returns home. Many years ago, he left the city of Bramwell to roam the world as a mercenary and protector of the kingdom. But Bramwell has changed a lot over the years. Something dark and sinister has enslaved the townspeople, something very ancient and endlessly patient, luring the innocent into the net of evil and desecrating the land itself. Now this sinister force calls to Darrick... and the only thing left for him is to follow a dangerous and cursed path to the end.
