Book Description
James Daly thought he was safe at college after defeating small-town cultists and their otherworldly master. He was wrong. Although the Thing in the Woods is dead, there's more to this world than just one monster. In May of his senior year of high school, he'd faced a murderous coven and the otherworldly horror they worshiped in the woods outside small-town Edington, Georgia. And though there was a price to be paid, he came away triumphant. Now dating fellow survivor Amber Webb, he's attending Georgia State University with his best friend Eli Schwartz and doing his best to forget the bloody events of the previous summer. But just in time for Amber to visit one October weekend, the nightmares plaguing him begin invading his waking hours. Something far more sinister than post-traumatic stress may be afoot, especially when the mysterious man in black who’d made James an offer he couldn't refuse returns. Meanwhile, reluctant Edgewood Jack Boy Javion Jackson joins more hardened gang members in an ambush of the Boulevard Crips, only to find his companions dead and himself a prisoner of sadistic extraterrestrials. The four are about to be dragged into an interstellar conflagration deep in the heart of downtown Atlanta. And not all will come home alive... This is the second book in The Long War series. Fans of the Men in Black, Charles Stross's Laundry Files, and Delta Green will enjoy this tale of a secret war against otherworldly forces.
