On the Damned World, it's every man for himself. Only it's not just mankind who dwells here . . . The Earth of the future is not one you'd recognize. Creatures previously thought to be simply myth- vampires, two-legged dragons, abominable snowmen, and nine other races-have overrun the planet and made it their own. Humanity is nearly extinct. But now the Twelve Races have discovered that their own fortunes are inextricably linked with the remnants of the human race. And so one of the last remaining humans, a young slave girl named Jepp (who holds the key to the future of the world), is on her way to a fateful meeting with the most powerful creature on the face of the planet. Except the question isn't what will happen when she gets there . . . but if she's going to make it there alive.

After completing the transcription of the first journal by Dr. Charles Jennings, Gavin Graham waited patiently to hear from the hidden world once more. It was a complete surprise when the beautiful daughter of Charles and Sarah Parker showed up at a remote ski resort near Seattle. Liz Jennings was much more than Gavin could have imagineda "impetuous, fast-talking, and incredibly beautifula "made immediately evident as she thwarts a mercenary killer in the first ten minutes of their conversation. Thus Gavin became a part of the hidden world he had written so much about. Taken via Area 51 to the hidden world itself, Gavin was asked to transcribe the second journal of Dr. Jennings. Charles Jennings, who had recently saved the earth from the dark forces, had a greater destiny to fulfill, only possible by unraveling The Secrets of the Sword. What destiny would be greater than saving the Earth? Only time would tell. Go with Gavin to the Hidden World and be with Charles, as the destiny of God and man is made very real. The whole life of Charles Jennings had led to this point in time, and his daughter Liz plays a bigger part than anyone could have imagined, commanding more awareness than even her father. What path lays in store for her? Walk in their path, feel what they felt, and become a part of The Hidden World Chronicles."

The world had become used to the metahumans-people sometimes perfectly ordinary,but sometimes quite extraordinary in appearance-who mostly worked with their governments as high-powered peace officers, fighting crime, and sometimes fighting rogue metahumans who had become super-criminals. Then that comfortable world ended in just one terrifying day. Suddenly, all world governments were simultaneously attacked by soldiers in giant mecha robotic suits with the swastika symbol of the Third Reich on their metal arms. If these were Nazis, where had they been hiding since the end of World War II? And where had they gotten armor and weapons far in advance of anything on the planet?
