Crusade (Keith Murphy Urban Fantasy Thrillers 3)

Description

Keith followed orders.

He came back home.

He freed his soul and laid claim to a magic sword.

But Keith Murphy doesn’t have time to rest, because his sorcerous partner Danny Roark is out of commission and the end of the world is thundering towards humanity like a freight train on steroids.

As the elder entities from the depths of the Gloom break through the veil of reality with increasing regularity, Keith is forced to assemble a rag-tag army of demons, seers, and reluctant allies to stop Ragnarök from occurring.

But the return of the apocalyptic Raven Cult fills the Gold Coast with sorcerers determined to ensure the apocalypse happens right on schedule, and it will take more than a 9 millimeter pistol, a magic sword, and a motley crew of comrades to foil their plans this time.

Equal parts John Wick and John Constantine, the Keith Murphy series is an apocalyptic thrill ride that blends the thriller with urban fantasy.

PRAISE FOR THE KEITH MURPHY SERIES

“All the grit and growl of the golden age detectives let loose upon the monsters and magics that keep us fascinated (and occasionally afraid) as we curl up on the couch at night. Ball is masterful in his use of tension, with a knack for keeping readers glued to the screen or page. His ability to showcase emotional connections and complications without devolving into self-pitying monologues or poetic meanderings give the stories an action movie vibe that adds tension and focus to the stories.” Kylie Thompson, HushHushBiz

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING

★★★★★ “Equal parts violence, noir and magic. Also manages to capture the feel of the Gold Coast.”

★★★★★ “a thoroughly entertaining noir-flavoured urban fantasy, where our hard-bitten but basically honourable protagonist tries to stay one step ahead of a multitude of past mistakes (while making a few more along the way). I’m definitely looking forward to seeing the other Keith Murphy books”

★★★★★ “Myth-heavy hard-boiled Gold Coast pre-(assorted)-apocalyptic fantasy. It resonates with the parts of my mind where American Gods took up residence.”
