Clay Engle’s Arsenal Stories

About the Book

Wilkes-Barre is not the kind of place you would expect to serve as the setting for a novel about a terrorist event unlike any the world has seen. Rising up to meet the challenge are Power of Justice, Star, Quarrel, Shockwave, Duplex, Splitscreen, Disc, Wildstar, and their leader, Arsenal. The organization rumored to be behind the attack is known as Guten Tag; however, there are underlying forces intent on doing more than destroying the city. Led by a dark priest and his army of arsonists, they plan to use fire and the demoness Astanna Syznchalla to unleash hell and claim Wilkes-Barre for their own.
