    'These are the last days ...

    'Travel the blood-stained trails of Kathmandu.

    'Explore doorways to other worlds.

    'Fight for humanity’s darkening soul.

    '... when the powers of the Gods wane and evil walks the Earth.

    'The Last Days of Kali Yuga is urban fantasy at its darkest. You won’t find traditional vampires or werewolves in Paul Haines’s stories. Instead, you will stare deep into the heart of the cruelest monster of all: man.'
