Supreme Grand Master Azrael summons Lazarus and his Fifth Company to honour an old debt on the Knight world of Reis – a planet upon which the warp has set its hungry gaze. But Lazarus is not so sure Reis wants to be saved – its Knights are long lost, its governance is dogged by political strife, and internecine conflict hampers the world’s defence against an ancient evil. ­An evil which, like Lazarus himself, refuses to die.

Alwin og Aurora er tvillinger. De er knyttet sammen af et særligt bånd. En dag dukker Lazarus op, og ingenting er som før. ”Alt var blåt og grønt. Da de kom ned til havet, blev det også gult, strandengen var fyldt med troldhekse. Insekterne summede i luften, det knitrede i guld-regnen og Alwin følte, at denne dag ville blive den bedste dag i hans liv, og måske, en skrækkelig tanke strejfede ham, den sidste.” - Uddrag for bogen.

"Nur, weil du nicht paranoid bist, heißt das noch lange nicht, dass sie dich nicht beobachten. Wer bestimmt, was wahr ist? Die Realität liegt bei dir, sie entsteht in deinem Kopf. Lass dich nicht täuschen, dann wirst auch du nicht enttäuscht. Und denke immer daran: Vertraue niemandem!" ? In einer Zeit, in der kein Geheimnis sicher ist vor unbarmherzigen Erpressern, rücksichtslosen Verschwörern, bestechlichen Behörden oder machthungrigen Geheimdiensten, können wir nur uns selbst vertrauen.

With a cataclysmic climate crisis on the horizon, Colonel William Graves, head of the US Disaster Mitigation Corps, has been ordered on a bold and highly classified mission. Graves must help billionaire tech entrepreneur Anthony Taulke develop the Lazarus Protocol, a secret plan to geoengineer the Earth's atmosphere, and prevent disaster.

Hell hath no fury like a Horseman scorned. They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. For Lazarus Kerrigan, that couldn't be further from the truth. He's got no intention of playing nice once he gets there, not with Emma's soul on the line. To free her, he'll have to travel through not one Hell, but seven, cutting deals with ghosts, Titans, and gods who would rather crush the Pale Horseman than help him.

Since being drafted into a position as the Pale Horseman, Lazarus Kerrigan has killed his fair share of gods and monsters. In New Orleans, a city steeped in voodoo and the supernatural, that's saying something. But when someone else starts killing gods in his city, he takes it personally. His search for the killer leads him to a deadly no-holds-barred tournament run by the gods themselves. The prize? The right to name the next Black Horseman, Famine.

After shattering his soul during a spell, Lazarus has just six days to find the pieces and put them back together. Not an easy task when every reaper in the underworld is gunning to claim his soul, including the reaper king, Thanatos. To reclaim the lost fragments of his soul, he'll have to face old enemies, travel to Faerie to battle his most fearsome foe yet, and acquire a vast sum of sugary snack cakes. If he fails, more than his own life is on the line. Mask is amassing an army to retake Earth and snuff out all life forever.

After the search for the murderer brings the police to his front door, Laz must prove his innocence by hauling in the real killer with help from the dead. When the sun sets in New Orleans, more than monsters go bump in the night... And what Laz awakens in his quest for answers might just get him--and everyone else in town--killed.
