Unholy Night
From the author of the New York Times bestselling Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, comes UNHOLY NIGHT, the next evolution in dark historical revisionism.
They're an iconic part of history's most celebrated birth. But what do
we really know about the Three Kings of the Nativity, besides the fact
that they followed a star to Bethlehem bearing strange gifts? The Bible
has little to say about this enigmatic trio. But leave it to Seth
Grahame-Smith, the brilliant and twisted mind behind Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and Pride and Prejudice and Zombies to take a little mystery, bend a little history, and weave an epic tale.
In Grahame-Smith's telling, the so-called "Three Wise Men" are infamous thieves, led by the dark, murderous Balthazar. After a daring escape
from Herod's prison, they stumble upon the famous manger and its newborn king. The last thing Balthazar needs is to be slowed down by young
Joseph, Mary and their infant. But when Herod's men begin to slaughter
the first born in Judea, he has no choice but to help them escape to
Egypt.
It's the beginning of an adventure that will see them
fight the last magical creatures of the Old Testament; cross paths with
biblical figures like Pontius Pilate and John the Baptist; and finally
deliver them to Egypt. It may just be the greatest story never told.
