The world is on the brink of ruin...or is it salvation? Astaroth has been weakened, and the demon Prusias is taking full advantage of the situation to create an empire of his own. His formidable armies are on the move, and Rowan is in their sights. Rowan must rely on Max McDaniels and David Menlo in the hope that their combined powers can stop Prusias's war machine before it's too late. But even as these perils loom, other dangers stalk Max's every move. Someone has marked him for death, and no one is above suspicion. Should the assassins succeed, Rowan's fate may depend on little Mina, whose abilities are prodigious but largely untested. And where is Astaroth? Has he fled this world, or is he biding his time, awaiting his next opportunity? In the fourth book of The Tapestry, author-illustrator Henry H. Neff boldly raises the stakes in an epic tale of mankind's struggle to survive in a world populated by demons, demigods, and everything in between.
