The Heretics

Return to the raucous world of New York Times bestseller The Devils in the bloody, action-packed sequel, The Heretics. This hardcover edition features four-color illustrated endpapers, illustrated family tree, foil case stamp, and full-page interior illustrations. When saints turn away, devils must do god‘s work...

But the Chapel of the Holy Expediency-including an insatiable werewolf, a depressed necromancer, and a beggar afflicted by visions-is a cure that might prove worse than the disease, and the rot at the heart of Zeitz goes deeper than anyone could suspect...
