'Maberry has outdone himself with a deliciously diabolical plot and bone-chilling scenarios that keep you riveted to every page. Brutal action, insanely intelligent, and so real that the hair on the back of your neck stands up!" L.A. Banks Jonathan Maberry is a stunning dark thriller writer and a fabulous new talent

Heated, violent and furious. - Peter Straub 'King of Plagues is unrelentingly fast-paced, the combat scenes brutal and bone-crunchingly authentic. Ledger is brash and cocky but he has just enough insecurity to keep you rooting for him as he saves the world once again.' - The Financial Times
