[The Spear of Destiny 02] • Death's Head Legion · the Spear of Destiny · Part Two of Three

When we last saw our heroes… they were on their way to the Vatican, looking for the “spear of destiny,” in order to destroy the zombie army of the Black Sun Reich. Armed with snarky banter and bizarre weaponry provided to them by none other than Nicola Tesla, Dietel, Rucker and company have a young-gun Nazi daredevil hot on their trail, bent on ending their quest in the most brutal of ways. And time is getting shorter…

The North American continent is made up of several rival nations, and a Cold War is building between them. The Nazis rose to power a decade earlier. People travel by airship and powerful organizations calculate with Babbage’s Difference Engine. The Nazis have hatched a plot to raise a legion of undead soldiers.

Enter Sean Fox Rucker and Jesus D’Anconia Lago, two Great War veterans and freelance pilots who are pulled into the quest. They are joined by a brash Greek merchant, a brilliant Jewish cowboy, and the woman who once broke Rucker’s heart. This ragtag band of reluctant, bickering, swashbuckling heroes soon is locked in a globe-spanning race against Nazi occultists, clockwork assassins, and a darkly charismatic commando. In a world where science and the supernatural co-exist, and the monsters of legend are as real necromancers who summon them from dark realms, our heroes alone stand before the rising darkness. But all their efforts may not be enough.

The stakes? Who will be first to secure an ancient holy relic that will lead to either the salvation or the downfall of mankind?
