[edit] Plot
Rasalom returns to devour the earth and its inhabitants in this strong sequel to Reborn and Reprisal. Rasalom has shortened the daylight hours and let loose a plague of human-eating monsters that prey on the worlds populace during the long nights. Whole communities turn on one another; riots break out over food; gangs wage war on the public; and Rasalom grows strong as he feeds on the chaos. The only one who can stop the horror is Glaeken, an enfeebled old warrior who has battled the Adversary across time. Too weak to fight alone, Glaeken gathers supernatural forces to assist him, among them a boy with mysterious powers, a 150-year-old woman and a vigilante named Repairman Jack. The death of one of the fighters reveals the overwhelming strength of the Adversary's forces, who have reserved a particularly gruesome fate for Glaeken.
