Description

Malignant creatures from alternate universes engulf the world in chaos, converging to feast on humanity's worst instincts.

The only person standing against this invasion is the unlikely hero, Albuquerque police detective, Richard Oort. One of the few humans capable of wielding an ancient weapon with the power to destroy both magic and monsters, he's become a Paladin, fighting for the ancient order of the Lumina.

And if saving the world wasn't enough of a challenge, Richard has become the CEO of Lumina Enterprise, a secretive, worldwide operation devoted to spreading knowledge and technology to battle the evils of ignorance, superstition, magic and religious fundamentalism.

As Richard struggles to lead a gang of unlikely allies in this desperate battle, he must conceal the damaging secrets that will cost him the respect and love of his cold, judgmental, and distant father—and try to hide his love for Damon Weber.

Will Richard collapse under the pressure or can he learn to accept and stop hiding that he is gay, saving both himself and all of humanity?
