Nobody would believe me, because demons aren't real (a sentiment I shared) and yet here was one, gazing into me. It left a trail through the digital highways of its reality, and I was bound to follow, to confirm its existence, and destroy it if I could. But I'm an academic, not a mystic. Until now, I never thought gods were real. How could a man like me fight the devil? From David V. Stewart, author of Eyes in the Walls, Voices of the Void, and The Wasting Desert comes a horror tale born of born of our modern dystopia and the cosmic terror of H.P. Lovecraft.
