Coming May 3rd from St. Martin's Griffin
Think you have a lot of pressure on your shoulders? Nick Gautier was born to bring about the end of the world . . . it's not easy being the heir of a demon overlord.
But Nick is determined to thwart his destiny and get into a good college. To be more than his genetics and prophecy foretell. No one is ever going to tell this stubborn Cajun who and what he really is. Or how to live his life.
Not even the Fates of the Universe. But now that he and his team of ancient gods and demons have claimed the Eye of Ananke and he sees the missteps of the future, he has to battle the demons within that are far deadlier and more treacherous than any he's battled before. All the while his arch nemesis is back and determined to reclaim his place as the harbinger for Armageddon. Even if it means killing Nick and barbecuing everyone he loves to do so.

Excerpt
Hanging his head, he pushed his
chair back to face her. “What do you want me to say, Kode?
You saw what I did. It’s hopeless. I’m
going to end this world. Whether it’s tomorrow or a thousand
years from now. I’m going to lose it all. Break bad
and tear humanity apart. . . . Don’t matter what we do.
Whatever we try. We just delay the inevitable outcome. So I’m
going to sit here with my eats. And just . . .” he let his voice trail
off as the full horror of his future played through his mind for the five
millionth time.
He was the end of everything.
Everyone.
All he loved.
The entire world would one day fall
to Nick’s army of demons.
Yeah, there was something to put on
his college applications. That ought to have schools lining up to accept him.
Who wouldn’t want that as their alumnus? We have graduated
senators, presidents, movers-and-shakers, and the Malachai demon who ate the
world whole…
It was the one reality Nick wanted
to deny and couldn’t. Everything eventually came
back to that one inescapable fact he wanted to runaway from and couldn’t.
I’m only sixteen. Too young
to deal with this crap.
He was supposed to be worried about
his grades. About keeping his girl happy. Staying out of trouble. His mom finding
his friend’s porn magazines stashed in his room. Getting to work on
time. Making curfew.
Not hellgates and demons coming for
the throats of his family and friends.
Definitely not about the fact that
his birthright was to bring on the destruction of all humanity.
Hunt for a Surprise!
