Purgatorio

The Basanos

Mazikeen and the army of Lilim are prepared to invade Lucifer's realm, only to find Lucifer gone and the Basanos in charge. As the full extent of the Basanos' scheming becomes apparent, the cards of the living tarot use the reluctant Jill Presto as the vessel for their most blasphemous magic yet. But an angel and a child still stand against them, and Lucifer's body has not been recovered. When a certain immortal member of the Endless appears, it doesn't look like things are going to get any better…
