Terrorcota — C.E. Martin

(Book 8 in the Stone Soldiers series)

When a rogue General from the People's Republic steals the most terrible alchemical weapon in Chinese history, capable of turning living flesh to dry, hard clay--he threatens to unleash it on America. The Stone Soldiers must spring into action against a mortal foe to prevent the outbreak of World War III, aided by a mysterious monk from the legendary Temple of Perfection. But General Zuo Zheng Duan has more than the Nlai Wan--the clay cloud--he has taken the ancient possessions of the Eight Immortals, combining them to make himself invincible and pave the way to conquering the world and declaring himself Emperor.



The Stone Soldiers are America's secret weapon against the forces of darkness. A small detachment of psychics, supernatural soldiers and men turned to living stone, they respond to threats conventional forces are not equipped to handle. Battling myths, monsters and magic around the world, the men and women of Detachment 1039 stand ready to do whatever it takes to stop evil in its tracks.
