Shadow Over Tokyo
NECROPOLIS RISING
A necromancer wants to turn Tokyo into a necropolis.
That necromancer should be dead. Cain and Hannah had killed her long ago. Or so they thought. But there's a fresh infestation of necrotons, reanimated corpses, haunting Tokyo's streets.
Cain and Hannah return to Tokyo to finish what they started. But what they find is much worse than they could have ever imagined. These necrotons aren't the same as the ones they faced before.
Necrotons have strength in numbers. They're puppets on strings. Only as skilled as the necromancer controlling them. Remove the head and the strings are cut. But these necrotons don't work like that. They regenerate.
And they keep coming.
To make matters worse, the local Mage Guild won't help. In fact, they're actively protecting the new necromancer. That necromancer is working on a spell to kill millions of citizens at once. To instantly reanimate the corpses.
And if Cain can't stop them, Tokyo will soon be a city of the dead.

John Corwin
John Corwin didn’t set out to become a writer, he stumbled into it the way some people stumble into magic. What began as a late-night experiment in blending teenage angst with supernatural absurdity turned into a career filled with vampire cheerleaders, snarky heroes, and more than a few demonic mishaps. Best known for his Overworld Chronicles, Corwin has carved a niche in the world of urban fantasy and young adult fiction where sarcasm meets spellcraft and nothing stays serious for long.
