Of Rooks & Rams

It all started with the Rook. Michael worries it'll end with the Rook, too. Increasingly horrifying disasters haunt Michael's every step, but it takes a gruesome decision, and blood on his own hands, for the Rook to finally introduce himself. A monster so cruel as to be hunted even by other monsters, the Rook stalks Michael's every movement, and Michael fears he will be at the Rook's mercies for the rest of his life. At this rate, the rest of his life won't be very long at all. Michael must escape the Rook's clutches, while keeping hold of his fading sanity-and what remains of his humanity. The Rook will drag him through hell, but it is up to Michael to see if he will make it back out again.

Sequel to The Rook. It was just supposed to be a book, born out of a crazed and desperate mind. Just another story. The problem is that it wasn't. Two years ago, Tuesday Olson made a terrible mistake. She was not alone, however. There was Silvermin, who tried to protect them all, and the Rook, who lead them down the dark path. Over time, she convinced herself that the monstrous demon haunting her was a product of her guilty conscience. That was, until another one showed up on her doorstep, irate at the book she created about them. Now, Tuesday must come to terms with the fact that the unnatural creatures are indeed real, and are drawn to her. Her nightmares have come true. They are seeking her out, hungry for revenge and her blood. Her only chance is to pick the least horrible one and hope for the best. Even if the best means she may become the next item on the menu. But it's never that simple. There are forces beyond her, forces unknown to her, working against her. There is a civil war brewing, and she and the ones she has been striving to protect are about to be drawn into it.
