The gripping conclusion to the Amazon #1 best-selling Dark Fantasy CRUXIM trilogy... Vampires and their plague-born brethren threaten to overrun the world like a blood-borne wave. At their helm, is Beltran, a Vampire whose malicious nature is as black as his many secrets. Standing between Beltran and certain destruction of all Cruximkind is Amedeo Aeternus—the half-Cruxim hybrid of the prophecy, the Cruor driven on by an unremitting desire for revenge. Along with the Sphinx Sabine and Cruxim Skylar—whose love for him is as fierce as their warrior natures—and a handful of Cruxim, mortals, and mythological creatures, Amedeo must make a final stand to end the horrors of his past and create a future for all of Cruximkind. But dark secrets still haunt him, too. With a battle so bloody on his hands, will the weight of his own fears crush him beneath the very Crux his people have suffered for millennia?
Author

KARIN COX is an Australian author who writes in her “spare time” while being a fulltime mum to two precocious girls and a black cat with the improbable name of "Ping Pong." She is the author of more than 50 trade-published titles, including children’s and adult fiction, biographies and travel guides, and Australian natural and social history texts, several of which are award-winning. Being so busy hopping from one genre to another, she runs almost wholly on white wine and insomnia, which could account for the cray-cray, but probably doesn’t. Her poems and short stories have been published in anthologies worldwide, and her novels and anthologies GROWTH, CAGE LIFE, CROWS AND OTHER BEASTS, CRUXIM, CRECHE, CREED, DARK GUARDIANS and WHAT THE SEA WANTS are available from all good online distributors and bookstores. Titles in Karin’s bestselling DARK GUARDIANS trilogy have several times topped best-seller charts for gothic romance and dark fantasy. FACEBOOK: http://smarturl.it/KCfacebook (approx.
