The offspring of seven ancient bloodlines
defend humanity against the demonic the threat that walks unseen on the Earth
The Selkirk family is one of the seven Blessed bloodlines: true emissaries of God. Empowered through his seven archangels the Blessed families have protected mankind from demonic threats for over nine hundred years. As the seventh son of a seventh son Cadell Selkirk has power beyond that of his brothers and the other Blessed families. That power has made his demonic enemies fear him and mark him for destruction.
Trained from birth to fight supernatural threats to mankind, Cadell and his brothers stand against diabolic forces that most people don’t believe in yet still instinctively fear. With hell gathering its forces against them the Selkirks are the only thing standing between a new hoard of vengeful demons and an unbelieving and unprepared human race.
Excerpt
The flow of magic into her body stopped and Evelyn fell to her knees, gasping. The amulet Helen had given here had partially melted; the magical etchings on it were now distorted and useless.

Hundreds of small insectoid parasites crawled over a body covered with long, matted moss-like hair. Four eyes looked down at Evelyn from the creature’s scale-covered face. She screamed and could not stop screaming.
A world of steam and springs. A breakneck race for power. Will one woman's defiance topple a kingdom? If you like feisty heroines, fearsome dragons, and fast-paced action, then you'll savor this steam-powered thrill-ride.
In 2000, Todd Cheney set out to write a complete fantasy series. Now, almost five years later, his goal is accomplished. The Soulstone will bring to conclusion the story began in The Seventh Circle.
