GUY FAWKES: DEMON HUNTER
A CLANGOUR OF BELLS
On Bonfire Night, an old man runs into the flames to recover an effigy of Guy Fawkes.
Why would he risk his life to defend the reputation of one of history’s most notorious figures?
It’s time to forget everything you think you know about Guy Fawkes!
Born during the clangour of bells in York, Guy Fawkes has a gift: he can see and hear the restless dead.
In the late 1500s, the city is under the influence of evil. Both the Archbishop of York and the head of the Council of the North draw upon the power of demons to hold the city under their control.
When visited by the ghost of a rebellious lord, Guy is brought into the world of demon hunters, a secret society dedicated to defeating evil. Can young Guy Fawkes save York from the demon scourge, or will the darkness consume the city, his friends, and his family and set him on the path to self-destruction?
Guy Fawkes: Demon Hunter combines the supernatural with history in a coming-of-age tale of loss, friendship, and revenge.
GUY FAWKES: DEMON HUNTER
A DREAM OF DEMONS
After saving York from the clutches of the evil men and defeating a hulking demon lord in York Minster, Guy Fawkes finds the consequences of his actions have left him wounded, friendless, and assaulted nightly by dreams of demons.
When Queen Elizabeth’s demon-loving spymaster, Francis Walsingham, tries to reassemble and expand the wicked Council of the North in York, Guy knows he must act. But a chance encounter with a woman from his past, one he has often dreamed of, leaves him hoping for a life free of bloodshed and chaos.
However, the ghost of the rebellious lord, Thomas Percy, insists Guy’s destiny lies on another path, one which will see him dragged into a plot to appoint a demonic successor to Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth.
GUY FAWKES: DEMON HUNTER
A DIABOLICAL PLOT
Seeking allies to help combat England’s demons, Guy Fawkes fights all over Europe with friends old and new until an encounter with the King of Spain sends him into Africa to interrupt England’s supply of gunpowder. But in Morocco, Guy discovers a dangerous cult, the Children of Mizraim, who plan to corrupt the entire world with a demon plague. Battling against a resurrected nun, black cathedrals rising from the seas, and the Spanish Inquisition, Guy Fawkes travels farther than ever, facing greater dangers, on a path that eventually leads him back to England.
At home, England’s new king, James I, reigns over a population terrified of religious persecution. To end this oppression, Guy Fawkes joins a band of conspirators determined to change the world for the better. Will this explosive plot finally bring an end to England’s demon rule, or will diabolical forces thwart Guy’s plans once and for all?
