Bøger i The Moncrief Legends serien

Thaddeus has a new life and a new love. He and his family have finally found peace after years of strife and turmoil, but will it last? Not likely. Seth and Erica have battled on through the wickedness of the past to come out safe and sound on the other side of tragedy. Having another baby should be something of great joy and celebration but with a dark side of Erica's family dying to claim even a little bit of her for themselves, how safe will a new baby be? It's hard to say. Newly and blissfully married, Jarius and Kim seek to create a new chapter in their lives free of danger and demons, but is there more out there that could destroy them? Absolutely. In the fifth installment of The Moncrief Legends all bets are off. Danger will come from the left, the right, from above, and from where they least likely expect to find it. From the awakening of the past itself. No one is safe as darkness seeks to consume the family that refuses to give up. All will die or none will in the protection of what is theirs. Their dedication to each other will be pushed and tested to beyond the limits of what anyone should be expected to endure and they will come out of it missing someone they love.

I have more now than I've ever had in my entire life. I should be content with that. So why am I not? Because so much death has surrounded me all my life and now, when things seem to have calmed down and I have a new family, I fear this comfort I've found is false. It's like I'm afraid of being happy, but that's not really it. I feel them out there. I know they'll come for Kim, for my son and his family. I know the past repeats itself, but I can't allow that. Not here. Not to these people. I couldn't bear it. Not again. I've suffered enough and now it's time I right my wrongs and truly find peace. The strength in our group should be enough to save us. Seth, Erica, Thad…all are formidable and will, without hesitation, kill for each other. Just as I will. I can find Shax before he realizes I'm coming for him. He has allies, but mine are stronger. I can practically taste my revenge.

Roe.She thinks this is the end.She has no idea what she's started.She thinks she killed me. She thinks she's in the clear and free to play house with Seth, though against his will. She thinks he'll cave and give her what she wants. She thinks she's got all the time in the world, but I have news for her.She's as good as finished; she just doesn't know it yet. I have my work cut out for me, that's true enough, but I'm definitely up for the task. It's the only way to fix what's broken and reconcile the past, while saving my future with Seth. I have to get moving. I have to leave this quiet ditch in the country, that should've been my grave, and abandon Spain for parts as yet unknown. I have to find the place where my help resides. He's there, hidden from time, hidden from the world, but I know he's not dead as the rest of the planet presumes.Erica.The very sound of her name irritates me. She's nothing, not anymore, that is. She's dead and I'm the one responsible. I'm proud of this. Seth's upset with me, but he'll get over it. He got over a dead wife, he'll get over a dead girlfriend. It's nothing. She was nothing. He has me, and I've always been here, he's just not appreciated me as he should have, but he's going to. I should've done this a long time ago. Taken charge. Made him mine rather than try to suggest and manipulate. I would've saved myself hundreds of years of aggravation.But we're together now and he'll have to see that this is the way things were meant to be. We're the same, Seth and I; vicious and insatiable. I'll have to remind him of these things, but that will be the fun part.We have all the time in the world.*Picking up where Wanderer left off, Erica finds herself none the worse for wear, ready to take back what's hers and end the creature responsible for her death and the abduction of her loved one; Seth.

Beyond the wall of computers, all the books rested. Perhaps I belonged to every one of them. Fiction: Immortals aren't real. Romance: I had a lovely wife who I adored. Horror: She died, in my bed, with my best friend. Mythology: I wish all of this was a myth. There she was. Curled up in an overstuffed chair. Like a child, I darted between the rows of books. She would give the occasional smile as she read. We stayed like this for some time-her reading, me watching. This was exciting. A new person. She was beautiful. That was three days ago. I've been reduced to watching her from afar, from this secluded spot across the street from her house. I'm Seth. I was named after Adam and Eve's third child. It's been centuries since I've been with a woman. Immortality can be a nuisance like that. The time, where does it go? I must make her mine. Some would say that I stalk. I don't see it that way at all.

Sacrifice, the sixth and final book in The Moncrief Legends, wraps up the tale of Erica and Seth, Jarius and Kim, the children, the brother, the devil, and the lies that have worked to pull them all apart.Erica's baby is born and the apparitions who have covered the group from as much harm as possible linger a bit longer, anticipating trouble, or just unwilling to leave the people they love, and the unfinished business they carry.While Thaddeus fights for his life in not-quite-hell, even more treachery is revealed. To say he anticipated anything less than his own tortured death would be a lie, but through the fights to survive in the cruel environment and find his child before she is sold off, he learns more about the vulgar deceit of his would-be wife and just how far she would go to harm the people around her.The rest of his family are left to wonder about Thad's disappearance, to suffer over the visions of what awaits him now that he's back in the hands of his malicious father. There are no details, no comforts, only dreadful speculation, only the knowledge that he was taken and will likely never escape. Erica's connection to her only brother is severed and she has nothing but her own frightening thoughts to direct her, to reveal his situation, however perilous it might be. Can she call him back with her gift? It's never worked before, but it's all she's got.All have their own ideas of how to reconnect with Thad and each is as unlikely as the next. There is simply no way to reach him.Or is there?Is there someone who can wield a new truth? Seth begins to pick up on subtle differences within the group, a shift in power, more, new abilities, things that he can use to his advantage, providing he can bend whatever it is to his will. If he can make it so it just might cost him his life, but the sacrifice would be a worthy one, and one he is willing to gamble with.

As Erica and Seth get on with life after a bizarre and troubling beginning, more comes their way, promising to push them to the limit. Erica's real father has called for her and nothing she does will stop him from taking what he feels is rightfully his. She's taken from the safety of her new family and thrown into the clutches of a family she never knew she had, and would've never wanted, leaving her to fight for her sanity as much as her security. With her whereabouts unknown, Seth and Jarius search and struggle to find any clue to who took her and why. They enlist the help of people from Erica's past, hoping to shake loose meaning from her mother's deranged writings and a slew of artwork that points to enigmatic rituals and Erica's true origins.New allies are acquired and loved ones of the past prove to hold the answers to troubling questions, all working toward an end that will be anything but easy. Erica does her best to hold tight to the promise that Seth will come after her and hopefully, finally, be done with the lunacy of their heritages and find a way to live in peace, but that might be too much to ask.
