Black London скачать все книги 4 книг

The crow-mage Jack Winter returns — to crash a secret gathering of ghost hunters, soul stealers, and other uninvited guests, both dead and alive.

Normally, Pete Caldecott stays far away from magical secret societies. But ever since her partner and boyfriend Jack Winter stopped a primordial demon from ripping into our world, every ghost, demon, and mage in London has been wide awake — and hungry. And the magical society in question needs their help putting things right.

SOUL TRADE

It all begins with an invitation. Five pale figures surround Pete in the cemetery to 'cordially' invite her to a gathering of the Prometheus Club. Pete's never heard of them, but Jack has — and he's not thrilled about it. Especially the part that says, 'Attend or die.' The Prometheans wouldn't come to London unless something big's about to go down. So Pete and Jack decide to play it safe and make nice with the club — even if that means facing down an army of demons in the process. But now that they've joined the group, they're about to discover that membership comes at a cost.and has apocalyptic consequences.

Pete Caldecott did everything she could to save Jack from Hell, even reigning in the dark machinations of the Morrigan to help bring him home. Still, Black London has not welcomed Jack back with open arms. . . So when a friend in Los Angeles asks for help tracking a sorcerous serial killer, Pete and Jack decide a change of scenery couldn't hurt. . .

But the shadow side of the City of Angels turns out to be more treacherous than they ever imagined. Together, Pete and Jack must navigate a landscape teeming with hostile magic-users — and fight an unknown enemy. When their investigation leads to a confrontation with the demon Belial, Jack learns that he wasn't the only thing to escape from Hell. Now it's up to him and Pete to track and eliminate an evil older than the Black itself — before it turns L.A. into Hell on Earth. And destroys life as they know it back at home.

Pete Caldecott is trying to survive in Black London without Jack Winter, her teacher and closest friend.

After Jack was turned into a demon, he went to live far out of reach...in hell.

But for Pete, surviving is no easy matter.

The Black is rife with turf wars between mages and necromancers, the witch-hunting Order of the Malleus has resurfaced, and the gods themselves seem to be at each other's throats.

Then Jack reappears, as the head of hell's army, and Pete has to choose between Jack, and her duties as a Weir—which demand she kill him to save the world from certain destruction...

Jack Winter's deadly past has come back to haunt him...and his only hope lies in the shadows of Black London, the supernatural underworld teeming with dark magic and fey glamour.

Thirteen years ago, Jack Winter lay dying in a graveyard. Jack called upon a demon and traded his soul for his life. and now the demon is back to collect its due. But Jack has finally found something to live for. Her name is Pete Caldecott, and because of her, Jack's not going to Hell without a fight.

Pete doesn't know about Jack's bargain, but she does know that something bigger and far more dangerous than Jack's demon is growing in the Black. Old gods are stirring and spirits are rising—and Jack doesn't stand a chance of stopping them without Pete's help.
