Publisher's Synopsis
There is a hidden kingdom within our world. A dark empire filled with monsters. Cordin Westerly is returning home from another mission into that dangerous domain when he decides to break a centuries long silence and reveal the truth about the existence of monsters. Cordin and his companion of opportunity must escape capture by an evil organization bent on paving the way for the emergence of an army of lethal beings poised to destroy the human race. Old monster favorites like vampires and ghosts are discovered as well as new demonic threats introduced. From New York to England and Transylvania to Afghanistan, encounters with a multitude of deadly creatures starts a chain of events foretold in the biblical apocalypse leading from the emergence of the Anti-Christ. Though the Empire of Monsters series is fiction, the story contains many references to what will happen in our world during the apocalyptic period as described in the biblical books of Revelation, Daniel, and others. The first novella, Apocalypse Rising, tracks the unleashing of the Nephilim into our world, lays out a theory about the origin of evil, and follows the adventures of the main characters as they are thrust into the launch of our world into a struggle to survive through the end of days. The warning bell is sounded. The clock is ticking. The apocalypse is rising...
