The Magician (The Arcana Armageddon Book 1)

Before becoming cryptic pictures on the faces of tarot cards, the Arcana were an ancient order invested with godlike powers to battle inhuman terrors that stalked the old world. Their bloody struggle lasted centuries, but in the end, the Arcana claimed victory. Their enemies were either destroyed or driven deep into the dark places of the world. But with nothing left to fight, the order grew corrupt and bloated with power, turning on itself, slowly killing its members one by one. Now, with only a handful remaining, locked in a bitter struggle against one another, the remaining elders have left the world defenseless. Salvation now lies in the hands of the young Arcana, new recruits, wholly unprepared for the hell they are initiated into.This is the story of Ashe, a career alcoholic who knows the answer to any question; Santiago, a cold-blooded demon hunting priest; Moira, a federal agent driven mad by the killer she hunted; Alex her partner, a genius who can see patterns where others can not; Julian, the man both sought, a diabolical murderer who moves like a phantom through an unsuspecting world; Valentina, a vampire assassin with a vendetta against the clergy and especially Santiago, her former lover; Paris, a flamboyantly gay card player and the luckiest man alive; Helen, a plain woman who sells her soul to become beautiful and is initiated into the infernal Faustian business and Chris, a washed up faith healer.These new Arcana will have their work cut out for them as their intertwining stories take them deep into a world of angels, demons, vampires, zombies and a nightmarish creature that devours everything in its path. A world where they are nothing more than pawns, pawns that are the key to the survival of humanity.
