Angel of Darkness

From the World Fantasy Award–winning author, “a fresh, intriguing novel that captured me from page one” (Dean Koontz, #1 New York Times–bestselling author).

In the early 1990s, Charles de Lint wrote and published three dark fantasies under the name “Samuel M. Key.” Now, beginning with Angel of Darkness, Orb presents them for the first time under de Lint’s own name.

When ex-cop Jack Keller finds the mutilated body of a runaway girl in the ashes of a bizarre house fire, he opens the door to a nightmare. For a sadistic experiment in terror has unleashed a dark avenging angel forged from the agonies of countless dying victims . . .

“The best of the post-King contemporary fantasists, the one with the clearest vision of the possibilities of magic in a modern setting.” —Orson Scott Card, #1 New York Times–bestselling author

“One of the most original fantasy writers currently working.” —Booklist

“Disturbing and bloody, this story does ultimately lead to redemption, but it isn’t for the faint of heart.” —The Portalist
