Blood and Stone (20 page)

SHADES OF WAR

Colonel Mark Kenslir has defended America from the supernatural for over fifty years. In that time, he's killed many men. Now one of those vanquished enemies has come back from the grave—and is raising a spectral army from Civil war battlefields for revenge.

Kenslir must find a way to stop an army that is already dead, before they reach Washington and plunge the country into chaos. Aided by his cryokinetic granddaughter, an amorous vampire M.D. and his stone soldiers, can the Colonel stop the forces of darkness or will Washington fall to the shades of gray?

BLACK KNIGHT DOWN

Orbiting the earth for millennia, a strange, black construct hangs silently in space, its purpose and creators unknown. Governments of the world have feared the implications of the construct and have kept its existence a secret.

When the artificial satellite, code-named Black Knight, is brought crashing to down to Earth by a coven of witches, the Stone Soldiers must spring into action to keep those responsible from unleashing the ancient horrors it contains.

Joining up with the men of living stone, Kenji sets out to learn the future, warn the past and stop the end of the world. But can even the men of living stone stand against a mysterious opponent who can raise the dead?

Before the shapeshifters, the Stone Soldiers kept America safe from the supernatural…
