Queen Of Wands (Signed Limited Edition)

Soccer mom and demon fighter Barabara Everette is back ÿin this intricately interwoven monster noir thriller, the sequel to bestselling Princess of Wands by eight times New York Times best-seller, John Ringo.

Barbara Everette has a problem.ÿ It seems Janea, Barbara's assistant andÿThe Foundation for Love and Universal Faith'sÿbest operative, has been thrown into a coma by some very nasty magic she's stirred up. Barbara must track down the perpetrators and break the spell or Janea's soulÿwill be forever lost on the astral plane. Oh, and if she can't break the spell, zombies will destroy all mankind.

Meanwhile, Janea, a high-dollar call girl, stripper and High Priestess of Freya when she isn't fighting demons, must contend with a spiritual journey of her own.ÿ It's a journey into Janea's acceptance of herself in all her dimensions (and what dimensions they are!). Where to locate one's true inner essence? At a science fiction convention, of course. But when rescuers pursue Janea into her vision of a geeky alternate reality, we find this is one science fiction convention where the Guest of Honor could turn out to be Death Himself.

Finally, the Christian soccer mom and the Norse priestess stripper face their greatest challenge ever when an ancient Old One rears Her ugly face, and the Mother of Darkness walks among us. Since this is one Mother who is quite immune to any conventional power, includingÿnuclear weapons, it seems humanity's only hope is God. The question being: Is God willing to save humanity?ÿ

Fortunately for the rest of us, Barbara and Janea are determined to fight to the last ounce of faith to find out.
