What this book is about
Three very old creatures — who feed on pain and death by inhabiting human bodies and making them commit atrocities — gather for their annual game: sharing the best kills. When they begin to hunt each other, they drag their human victims into a 20th century-spanning war. Simmons's horror epic is one of the most ambitious in the genre.
