A demonic menace threatens the world, a brotherhood of sorcerers who operate from the shadows, manipulating world events and seeking the ultimate prize—a world free from God. For two thousand years, they have worked, raising corrupt governments only to see them fall at the hands of their mortal enemies—the wizards of the Wizards Society. But this time of failure is near an end. Soon will be born the Bringer of Death, the promised one of prophecy who will purge the world of its wizardry and usher in this era of oppression, the New Dark Age.
But the Wizards Society is not idle. They too have their prophecy. He is the Light Bearer, the chosen instrument of God and the only person capable of defeating the Brotherhood and bringing an end to their mad designs.
U.S. Marshal James Mercantile is hunting a stolen artifact when he finds himself thrust into this war. But even as he girds himself for battle, he discovers that he is somehow key to victory for both Society and Brotherhood. Now the target of these two powerful organizations, Jim races to uncover the truth before the prophecy is fulfilled. But as the signs of prophecy multiply around him, he discovers that the truth may be more insidious than he could ever have imagined. Both Light Bearer and Bringer of Death have already entered this world, and according to prophecy, they may be the same person--U.S. Marshal James Mercantile.
