Immortal Storm

In the spring of 2022, Roderick Cooley and his immortal companions brace for a new challenge to the world’s restored peace. The chaos inspired by Krontos Lazarevic, along with the political upheaval in America and elsewhere, have all subsided. But an ancient menace that was widely believed to have died in 1912 has now reappeared with a vengeance.
Zoa Promaji, a demonic horde of nearly six-hundred entities, had long been credited for some of the worst calamities to strike mankind during the past two-thousand years. Instigating disasters ranging from weather and seismic events to plagues responsible for the eventual deaths of millions of people mercifully came to an end when the demons guided an iceberg field into the path of the RMS Titanic. The horde in its entirety was believed to have perished in their attempt to murder their beleaguered sorcerer, Matija Badnjak, a passenger aboard the ill-fated ocean liner.
But in recent years, the wicked entities that sank long ago with the mighty ship have been given new life by an unsuspecting treasure hunter. As a result, Zoa Promaji has reemerged in the modern world, thirsty for revenge after being imprisoned in the Atlantic’s cold dark depths for more than a century. The demons seek to kill as many people as possible by combining storm systems, pulling magma to the earth’s outer crust, and by invigorating diseases that had long been dormant. The effort to terrorize the Earth begins in America, using a forgotten blood coin that once belonged to Judas Iscariot and the natural gifts and experiences of David Fulmer–the treasure hunter turned sorcerer after Zoa Promaji took possession of the middle-aged widower’s body and soul.
Roderick and the gang soon discover that these adversaries are far more powerful than anything or anyone they’ve ever encountered. Engaging the entities and their latest sorcerer head-on comes with a personal price. But with the fate of the world’s citizens hanging in the balance, there isn’t any other choice than to risk their lives for the greater good.
The outcome and more awaits discovery in Immortal Storm….
