Inhaltsangabe:

There's a war coming to the City of Angels. In the tunnels and dark alleysof the city, demons lurk... and Lucifer bides his time. One man knows and seesthe truth. Father Daniel Beckett has seen demons and he's spoken to the Devil,but he can't say the same about God or his angels. Obsessed and driven as muchby betrayal as righteousness and anger as redemption, he walks the smoke-filledhomeless encampments of lost souls, like Dante's nine rings of the Inferno. Heis God's warrior... at war with God. With this step into the comic book world,John Carpenter brings it all to the serial world he's loved since childhood.Supernatural horror with that twist of fate that only flawed mankind canprovide!
