<p>Vincent Li always assumed he'd die in Oakwood. If the local gangs didn't get him, then cigarettes and alcohol eventually would. </p> <p>Now, he's pretty sure minotaurs will kill him instead, and if not them, the ghouls dragging people into the dark will. </p> <p>In the wake of an unexplained spike in homicides, a masked figure opens portals to another world--a world filled with dangerous magic and mythological monsters. Creatures that shouldn't exist suddenly do, and they don't mix well with humans. Vincent is trapped in Oakwood as the city is torn apart, but he's no stranger to violence and will do whatever it takes to survive.</p>
