A thrilling new Victorian-era urban fantasy for fans of Kevin Hearne’s Iron Druid Chronicles, the Showtime series Penny Dreadful, and the Sherlock Holmes movies featuring Robert Downey, Jr.
With a flood of dark magic about to engulf Victorian London, can a handful of heroes vanquish a legion of the undead?
When monster-hunter Malcolm MacFarlane comes across the gruesome aftermath of a ritual murder in a London church, he enlists the help of magician-scribe Simon Archer and alchemist extraordinaire Kate Anstruther. Studying the macabre scene, they struggle to understand obscure clues in the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics carved into the victim’s heart—as well as bizarre mystical allusions to the romantic poetry of William Blake. One thing is clear: Some very potent black magic is at work.
But this human sacrifice is only the first in a series of ritualized slayings. Desperate to save lives while there is still time, Simon, Kate, and Malcolm—along with gadget geek Penny Carter and Charlotte, an adolescent werewolf—track down a necromancer who is reanimating the deceased. As the team battles an unrelenting army of undead, a powerful Egyptian mummy, and serpentine demons, the necromancer proves an elusive quarry. And when the true purpose of the ritual is revealed, the gifted allies must confront a destructive force that is positively apocalyptic.

If you could sum up The Undying Legion: Crown & Key in three words, what would they be?

The legacy of Pendragon is still rocking the world and the gang has to stanch the bleed. Yet there is so much richness in magic other than it being black and white. What the gang finds is intent defines what the magic really is.
I am a die-heart King Arthur fan, so I enjoy the Pendragon material. Pendragon and Merlin have so much mystery between them. The Pendragon in this series is a little of the Merlin magic and the nobleness of Authur. Like the knights of the round table, the Pendragon accolades are driven mad vying for the affections of the great man. Simon and Kate must clear the mystery and recreate the society.
Still Good!!!!
