It is five hundred years since the Earth nearly died in a hailstorm of nuclear bombs and resultant plagues. No one knows why the ancients tried to destroy the world. Their vast cities are still there, crumbling monuments to their colossal stupidity. Forbidden places now, where only the criminally insane Druids, and tribes of fiercely territorial cannibals roam their ruined streets. Outside the cities in scattered clearings, villagers struggle to survive, hoping that the bands of outlaws who strike with impunity from the huge forests covering most of England would somehow avoid their vulnerable community. It is a violent world the ‘Ghost Killer’ knows well. He has vowed to kill all those responsible for his wife’s death, and he was doing well until he met Ruth. A strange and beautiful girl with powerful mystical powers who offers him hope and the prospect of peace. Words that had almost been lost to his vocabulary after fifteen years of unremitting violence and bloodshed. Unfortunately for him, to find this Promised Land she speaks of, he is going to have to cut a swathe of blood through the land with his axe, and in doing so threaten the very thing he discovers he now wants more than anything else. An end to the bloodshed.

Every year, my town chooses a sacrifice for the demon that "watches over" our home. In exchange for a person from the village between the ages of 17 to 25, the demon protects our village. And because of that pact, our village is protected for the next year, under the demon's watchful eyes. No one knows what happens to those who the demon chooses, but there's a lot of theories about it. One is that the demon eats or absorbs those who are chosen - another, that it kills them. But this year, I'm the one who's chosen. I get to meet the demon I've feared since I was a child, and now that I'm 24, and am considered an adult, I could have left the village behind. But I didn't. Something inside me told me to stay. Now, I'm going to die. I just know it. I can't leave now, or run away, because the town would be unprotected for a whole year, and that's where my family lives. I don't know what to do, but I'm sure I'll think of something. Besides, how bad can this demon be if they're guarding our town?
