THE SLAYER OF SOULS

It is the year 1920. A dedicated group of Mongol Yezidees are plotting to overthrow the governments of the world. Led by the evil sorcerer Prince Sanang, the Slayer of Souls, their ultimate aim is the triumph of evil. The only person who stands between their dark design and world chaos is a young woman named Tressa Norne. An American orphaned in Mongolia, Tressa was trained in the magical arts as a temple girl in fabled Yian. She escapes the Yezidee and comes to New York where she is enlisted by Secret Service agent Victor Cleves. Soon she is locked in a psychic life-and-death battle with the Eight Towers of the Assassins. The world begins to slide into madness. Now Tressa must face the true test and defy the Slayer of Souls himself.

Yue-Laou, the Maker of Moons, has returned! And the wailing Yeth-hounds are loose in the forest...
