Mantle and Key Paranormal Agency

Can Death die? Someone is trying to kill Death. As in the Grim Reaper, San La Muerte, King Yama, Maveth, Death. Yeah, that guy. But if Death dies, who takes his place? That is the eternal question. Maine is hoping to avoid finding out the answer. She and Noff have taken on the harbinger of souls as their client, vowing to protect him as he competes in The Conjuring-the high stakes card game played by supernatural beings. Death is the reigning champion, and he has everything to lose. Participating in the event requires him to be vulnerable, and someone is gunning for him. Who is anyone's guess. But when you are the literal end to everyone and everything, you tend to rack up the enemies. Can Maine and Noff save Death from dying? Death, mythical creatures, and card-games . . . It's going to be one hell of a con.

Maine cast a good luck spell to save the love of her life from prison, but at what cost? Magic is controlled by chaos, and with every instance of magically-enhanced good luck comes some corresponding bad luck. Sage is free, but so is the Demon who created the Mantle. The Demon has escaped from his celestial prison. He is gathering his minions and is gunning for the Mantle. But the Mantle isn't the only weapon the Demon wants. There are other, more powerful items around . . . and none more so than Father Time's Clock. A device that gives its wielder the ability to control the rivers of time? Maine is royally screwed. Maine, the Noff, and their allies have to stop the Demon from ushering in the apocalypse. But time is literally against her. Will Maine have what it takes to stop a Demon so powerful that even the forces of Heaven couldn't contain him forever? Or is the beginning of the end for the legacy passed down from her father to her?

Win the war, or watch everyone she cares for die. When Maine took on her father's mantle, her intention was to protect a single village. No one said anything about every living being on the planet. The Demon has built a mythical stronghold in Rainwater and is gunning for the Nexus-the center of all magic on Earth. He'll have to go through Maine and her celestial army first, but he wouldn't have it any other way. Facing insurmountable odds, Maine has gathered every last mythical creature willing to stop the Demons. She knows that it's not enough. Not even close. Can Maine stop an evil so powerful that even the Devil bows to it? Or will all life on Earth end here?

Death isn't final. But it should be . . . When Maine took up her troll father's mantle, she thought he was dead. She was right. Sort of . . . Finding out that an aspect of him went to another world comes as a surprise. Maine has to get over her shock because he's been fighting a secret war for decades and he needs her help. Now she must traverse the fabric of reality and join her father's fight to stop the forces of Chaos before they destroy not only her world, but all known worlds. Can Maine, Sage, and the Noff come out on top in the fight for all living beings everywhere?
