A vast city spawned from one man's grief. An enchanted blade passed down in secret. A throne of darkest destiny unknowingly ascended. When the Hunter Cries begins the tale of Quinn Tabor, a young man struggling to discern his role in a legend that began nearly two centuries before his birth. When Quinn inherits a long forgotten blade infused with demonic power, along with a tome filled with contemptible Church secrets, he is unwittingly drawn into a struggle for power that spans generations...a struggle between Angels and Demons. Enemies old and new seek to thwart Quinn's efforts, and he soon finds that dealing death and defying it are equally gratifying. As corrupt Church officials try to destroy Quinn and suppress the sinister information that he now holds, the young heretic finds that he is host to a bewildering untapped power-one that is as much of a burden as it is a blessing. This power may be the only thing that can save the kingdom of Eldimorah from ruin. It may also be the very thing that destroys it.
