Description: Damali Richards is a woman-child in a world running with blood, depravity, and demons. Turned by her lover, Carlos Rivera, and brought back again, Damali clings to the one measure of purity that was handed down to her through generations of the wise, gifted, and strong. Now, through the power of magic, through the ache of desire and the touch of her lover, Damali is on a journey from the streets of Philadelphia to the ancient earth of Africa. With a small army, Carlos, and her own mad skills, she might just save the world from the demon seductress who wants her and her fiath obliterated--before Armageddon begins.
