BLINK 2: Circle of Ten

Plumes of dust billowed around John and Dark John where they slammed into the hard, scorched earth.

John observed the barren landscape. 'Where are we?'

Dark John shook his head and got to his feet, dusting himself off. 'The only place Hell wouldn't follow us to. Angels have betrayed human kind, John, they've given the Earth to Hell's hoards.'

'This is the dead world!' John shouted.

Dark John cringed at the volume, then somewhere in the darkness above a grey horizon the screams began. 'Yep' --he grinned-- 'and I think it's gonna get a bit deader pretty soon.'

In the darkness thousands of burning eyes appeared, and the ground trembled as the dead rushed towards them. John struggled to his feet, and they ran.

***

Earth has been sold out, the Circle of Ten has voted. Heaven stays with the Angels, and Hell gets Earth, but not everyone agrees.

John and Semila are trapped in 1963. Can they beat the monster killing the children? Death is missing. John and Dark John are stuck on the Dark World, a world in an alternate reality. The Succubus Natasha and the army of Sentinels must find them all and get them back before time runs out. The fate of the world depends on it. Surely this can't all be connected...can it?

(And you thought the last one had twists!)
