It's World War II and Winston Churchill has enlisted a secret front of wizards to combat the dark forces aiding the Nazis in their bid for world conquest.

Cade Martin is the key. But Cade isn't the Chosen One. The Chosen One was murdered by the sorcerous fire of Axis operatives before he could come into his power. In the war to save the world from plunging into darkness, Cade Martin is plan B.

Cade's teammates in the Midnight Front—magic users all—don't know what to make of him. Some don't trust him. But the stakes are higher than at any previous moment in human history, and the Midnight Front has no choice but to find a way to work together to somehow defeat Adolf Hitler's sorcerers before it's too late.

The Midnight Front is a thrilling, emotionally charged, action–packed tour–de–force.

Industry Reviews

"This novel is in equipoise--the horrific and evil balanced expertly by humor and good. ... The Midnight Front is as close to a perfect novel that I've had the pleasure to read in a long time. Mack leaves no cliffhangers and beautifully sets up the next novel in the series. I can't recommend The Midnight Front enough."--The Qwillery

"If you grew up reading and rereading the Harry Potter books, The Midnight Front is right up your alley."--The Nameless Zine

"A rollicking, high-stakes adventure with action tailor-made for the movies." --Brian Staveley, author of The Emperor's Blades

"Smart and surprising--fun and fascinating speculation grounded in familiar history, a rich and textured variation on the magical arts, and complex characters struggling to fight the good fight. I loved it." --Kirsten Beyer, New York Times Bestselling author of Children of the Storm

"The Dark Arts series hits the ground running. Exciting and smart, David Mack's secret history of World War II and the occult heroes and villains that fought it will keep you up well past midnight." --R. S. Belcher, author of The Six-Gun Tarot

"An epic thrill ride, taking us deep into a compelling, hypnotic vision of history as it might have been. Powerful, fast paced, and engaging." --Ilana C. Myer, author of Last Song Before Night

"An exciting, secret struggle of occult powers and military action. Can't wait for the next one!" --Richard Baker, author of Valiant Dust

"Propulsive, with well-crafted characters and cinematic set pieces culled from the war's most momentous crossroads. Equal parts brimstone and gunpowder, the book deftly mixes the tropes of high fantasy into a semirealistic portrayal of WWII, resulting in an entertaining scenario that wouldn't be out of place in a video game or a spirited match of Dungeons & Dragons. A complex, entertaining fantasy that sets loose a 'chosen one' hero arc among the dogs of war." --Kirkus Reviews
