Nightchild — Scott Baker

ON A STRANGE PLANET, AN ORPHAN BOY MUST UNLEASH THE SECRET POWERS OF THE UNDEAD!

In a world where everyone worships the Goddess of Death, an orphan boy is guilty of the ultimate blasphemy. He senses he is alive -- unlike the masked ones who believe they are dead, damned sinners in the eternal dungeons of hell.

Now the orphan must discover the bizarre powers that link him to the mysterious creatures of the long-lost planet Nosferatu. The risk is great -- if he fails, his galaxy may perish -- if he succeeds, the slumbering forces of the Undead will engulf the Universe!
