Eclipse of the Crown (Deluxe Edition): A Novel (Villains & Virtues, 3)

"Nothing about Damien Maleficus Bloodthorne's evil destiny has gone according to plan. The reason? The kindhearted baroness who has somehow managed to entangle herself in his softening heart. But once again amongst his peers at Yvlcon, the preeminent congregation of the vilest and most unscrupulous villains in existence, Damien's moral growth is threatened just when he's learning to be slightly less evil. Consequently, Amma finds her own virtue in peril when faced with so much temptation, namely in the form of a domineering blood mage she can't-or doesn't want-to say no to. But a burgeoning romance is doused in the coldest of baths when the Grand Order of Dread commands Damien to once again face the swirling vortex of entropy that's been hunting them all over the realm. The coming eclipse points to devastation and destruction, with annihilation impossible to avoid, prophecy being, well, prophecy, after all. But there's an entire fortnight before the world is supposed to end, and surely that's enough time to find some way around it. . . or at the very least to confess one's devotion to the other before it all burns down around them"-- Provided by publisher.
