About this listen
A journey to 1930s Egypt turns into a nightmare as Alexander Saxon and his men are faced with the return of an implacable foe. Weed and Jerry are the objects of a murderous attack as they return to their hotel while Saxon is set up for death by scorpion.
Following a visit to a strange tomb located deep in the desert beyond Cairo, it quickly becomes clear that their unseen foe has unleashed two arcane creatures - experiments initially engineered in lost centuries - as a means of vengeance.
This is a reformatted and expanded version.

The fiction world of today needs a “Saint” more than it ever did. For years now that scene has been dominated by the “anti-heroes"—those grim gray operators in a sunless sub-culture where global issues are worked out with totally unemotional pragmatism, those hapless uninspired puppets manipulated and expended by ruthlessly dedicated little brothers of Big Brother. It made morbidly fascinating narrative, but it never gave anyone a lift until it climaxed in the hyper-gadgeted parodies of 007 extravaganzas.

Matt Hollis is the current wielder of the holy weapon, DÄMOREN. With it, he stalks and destroys demons. A secret society called the VALDUCANS has taken an interest in Matt's activities. They see him as a reckless rogue - little more than a "cowboy" corrupted by a monster - and a potential threat to their ancient order. As knights and their sentient weapons begin dying, Matt teams up with other hunters of his kind such as LUIZA, a woman with a conquistador blade; ALLAN, an Englishman with an Egyptian khopesh; MALCOLM, a voodoo priest with a sanctified machete; and TAKAIRA, a naginata-swinging Samurai.
