It's been two years since the destruction of both the Gangster Federation, and Lord Magnus, in Saints City. Daniel Stone, better known to the criminal underworld as the Black Mamba, still continues his amoral mercenary profession for both the British Government and independent clients. The Black Mamba's main weapon is modified non-lethal snake neurotoxin, which not only paralyses his victims, but provokes repentance. When the Black Mamba is recruited by MI6 to bring down a Colombian cocaine baron in the Peruvian Amazon, what starts as a simple mission soon becomes extremely complicated, and deadly. The situation is convoluted further with the arrival of a mysterious doppelganger of the Black Mamba, who claims to have been wronged by him in the past, and is now on a determined hunt for revenge. With so many various adversaries, the chances of survival are slim - even for someone as skilled as the Black Mamba.

The world has been massively unappreciative of sixteen-year-old Baxter Zevcenko. His bloodline may be a combination of ancient Boer mystic and giant shape-shifting crow, and he may have won an inter-dimensional battle and saved the world, but does anyone care? No. Instead he’s packed off to Hexpoort, part reformatory, part military school, and just like Hogwarts (except with sex, drugs, and better internet access). The problem is that Baxter sucks at magic. He’s also desperately attempting to control his new ability to dreamwalk, all the while being singled out by the school’s resident bully, who just so happens to be the Chosen One. But when the school comes under attack, Baxter needs to forget all that and step into action. The only way is joining forces with his favourite recovering alcoholic of a supernatural bounty hunter, Ronin, to try and save the world from the apocalypse. Again.
