Luke Castello was never ordinary. He has spent every day hiding a secret from those close to him. The secret? He has three different personalities tangled up in his brain. The other two voices are completely different from his own and constantly cause trouble for him. He thought his life could never get more complicated… He was wrong. Demons are real… An attack on his school would change everything he thought he knew. Luke still didn’t understand. The demons were searching for demigods. Why were they there? Demigods don’t exist… Do they? They do exist. And Luke is one of them. With one of his friends kidnapped by Hell’s forces, Luke has to make a decision. Let Lucifer take someone close to him, or fight his way through Hell to save his friend. At least the Greek gods on Olympus will help him…right?

Luke and his friends have survived Hell… literally. While much of the immediate danger has passed, Luke is left with one lead to follow. In the moments before his coma, a voice called out to him. “My son, find the Ark.” It’s time for Luke and the gang to go on a new journey to recover this long-lost Ark, but will Lucifer’s commanders stand idle? Knowing Luke’s luck? It’s doubtful. Still, there are unsolved mysteries that force Luke to march on. With a few new allies at his side, perhaps he can break through any that would stand in his way. However, it could be the enemies he cannot see that cause the most harm.

This is the first prequel book to the Luke Castello series. Either this book or Luke Castello: The Angel/Demon of Olympus would be a fine starting point to the series. Long before Luke fought against Lucifer’s army, there was another. Catherine always longed to be a hero. She knew she had demigod blood, but powers never awakened in her. All on Olympus assumed she would have a null mark, a sign of a powerless demigod. Still, Catherine persevered. She trained her body every day and was eventually accepted into Olympus’s army. Being a powerless demigod recruit isn’t any easier, however. Plenty of her fellow recruits believe she doesn’t belong there. An appearance by the three sisters of fate will force the wheels of her destiny to move, but will she like the direction? Journey with Catherine as she competes against her fellow recruits, learns dark secrets of the court of Olympus, and fights some of Lucifer’s original commanders, the deadly Sins.

This sumptuously illustrated volume analyzes artists' representations of angels and demons and heaven and hell from the Judeo-Christian tradition and describes how these artistic portrayals evolved over time. As with other books in the Guide to Imagery series, the goal of this volume is to help contemporary art enthusiasts decode the symbolic meanings in the great masterworks of Western Art. The first chapter traces the development of images of the Creation and the Afterworld from descriptions of them in the Scriptures through their evolution in later literary and philosophical works. The following two chapters examine artists' depictions of the two paths that humans may take, the path of evil or the path of salvation, and the punishments or rewards found on each. A chapter on the Judgment Day and the end of the world explores portrayals of the mysterious worlds between life and death and in the afterlife. Finally, the author looks at images of angelic and demonic beings themselves and how they came to be portrayed with the physical attributes--wings, halos, horns, and cloven hooves--with which we are now so familiar. Thoroughly researched by and expert in the field of iconography, Angels and Demons in Art will delight readers with an interest in art or religious symbolism.
