Eleven thousand years ago, a god was born. Cursed into the body of a
human, Acheron spent a lifetime of shame. But the strongest steel is
forged from the fires of hell...
Acheron's human death unleashed an unspeakable horror that almost
destroyed the earth. Then, brought back against his will, he became the
sole defender of mankind. Only it was never that simple. For centuries,
Acheron has fought for our survival and hidden a past he'll do anything
to keep concealed. Until a lone woman who refuses to be intimidated by
him threatens his very existence. Now his survival--and ours--hinges on
hers, and old enemies reawaken and unite to kill them both. War has
never been more deadly...or more fun.
