Demon in the Streets…Dragon in the SheetsAlastair Stone knew it was only a matter of time. The demon called The Unspeakable is safely locked away, but nearly a dozen more of its kind remain behind, gathering strength like malevolent, ticking time bombs. So, when Stone gets word that a mysterious and hyper-violent entity has taken over a Changeling street gang in inner-city Detroit, it isn’t long before he’s sure he knows exactly what the threat has to be. It might be the “least” of the remaining demons—but that doesn’t mean it will be easy for him and his friends to take it down. And just because Stone’s life isn’t convoluted enough, the powerful, formidable, and very desirable woman who helped him defeat The Unspeakable is calling in her marker. He’ll face dire consequences if he tries to back out—but that assumes he even wants to. Meanwhile, Aldwyn has found his way to magic-rich Calanar, where he discovers to his delight that he can command far more power than on Earth—including the ability at last to assume his true form. When his explorations lead him to one of the floating cities, he devises a bold and far-reaching plan to claim his due—one that will put him on a collision course with Calanar’s arrogant, dangerously unstable ruling class.
