DEFIANCE HAS NEVER HAD TO WORRY ABOUT THE APOCALYPSE...

Mainly because it came and went long before she was born. A banshee with the power to Mark man and God alike for the Reaper, she knows that joining the Church will mean her death. So, she runs, and in doing so, inadvertently frees the Archangel Uriel.

Left blinded by a centuries-old war, Uriel has no hope of navigating this new, bloodthirsty world on his own. His Holy Weapon, a shotgun with a mind of its own, will only get him so far without a soul to power it. Uriel knows better than anyone that the damned can't be saved. But if humanity has any hope of redemption, he and Defiance will need to find a way to do just that.

With the Reaper stalking her dreams, new enemies and old joining forces, and the very horsemen of the apocalypse riding out to play, Defiance will learn just how far she's willing to go to save the unsaveable.

Angels lost the Great War.
The Apocalypse was over.
Defiance has known these things her whole life...

But what if she'd been wrong?
