She awakes in the city of Nineveh in the year 612 BC. The armies of the Medes and Babylonians are at the gates. The Empire of Assyria is about to fall. And a sorcerer named Shamash-iddin is locked in a deadly contest with his oldest friend and fiercest enemy – Urad-Gula, once the king's exorcist, now a worshiper of evil antediluvian gods.
She has been brought here, across the centuries, for a single purpose. In her own time she is fated to sing the Blood Song, the most monstrous of all incantations, meant to deliver the world into the clutches of demons loosed from hell. Only she can unsing it. She must find a way – tonight, before the city dies in chaos – and before Urad-Gula can use his dark arts to banish her soul to the House of Dust.
Michael Prescott says, "BLOOD SONG is an entirely new version of a horror novel I wrote nearly forty years ago, which I called DeathSong. That one was set in the modern world. The new story takes place in ancient Mesopotamia, in a walled city facing its final hours. It's different from most of my other work, but if you like battling wizards, shape-shifting phantoms, and dark Lovecraftian gods biding their time until they can reclaim the world, then I think you'll like this."
Prescott is the New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of more than thirty books.
