Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In the darkest days of the Dark Ages, the people of France faced both the Black Plague and desperate gangs of men who wandered the depopulated countryside looting and raping. Tomas, a disgraced knight, is one of these men. When he and his group of hardened men come across a farm where they can find a meal, they also encounter a girl orphaned by the Plague. An unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Tomas that the disease is only part of a greater, more significant cataclysm -- that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven. Is she really blessed, or is it delirium? As hell unleashes its fury and the true nature of the girl is revealed, Tomas finds himself on a macabre battleground of angels and demons, sinners and saints, and a damnable struggle for nothing less than the soul of man.
