Nic Ward wasn't always Hell's most infamous fallen angel. This is how his story began... In Higher Justice, a guardian angel by the name of Nicariel makes a deal with a demon to bring a killer to justice. In The Dizzy Fall, an Inquisitor is called in to investigate the murder of an angel. And in Devil's Crossroads, Lucifer's quiet life in the suburbs is upended by impossible news: God is dead... These three short stories take place bef...

Criminal underworld meets literal underworld… The mayor may think he runs things in Jarvis, but the rest of us know better. Vincent Dean's criminal empire controls the illicit trade that is the lifeblood of the city. And Ruby McGinniss, however adeptly she plays the part of his empty-headed trophy wife, controls Vincent Dean. As someone who's made a career out of helping the little guy get justice, I'd happily watch their corrupt empire bu...

Fun with Nic and Jane I keep women at a distance for a reason. Jane most of all. She thinks my life in the shadows is exciting and glamorous. I know better. If I let her get too close, my world will eat her alive. But when her ex gets himself into the kind of trouble I specialize in solving, she's got nowhere else to turn. What am I supposed to do? Watch her get herself killed trying to save the guy on her own? I've got no choice but to ...

God is dead. I killed him. My name's Nic Ward. At least, that's what I'm going by these days. Once, Heaven and Hell alike knew me as Nicariel the Fallen. But it turns out killing the tyrant on the Divine Throne will earn you a bit of a reputation. So I'm hiding out in the human world, keeping to myself. I'd say I've more than earned a quiet retirement. But without anyone keeping order up above, the demons in Hell are restless. And Heaven h...

Cops may be annoying, but vampires just plain suck… Ah, the ever-irritating Detective Sullivan-goody-two-shoes cop and perpetual thorn in my side. He's at my door again demanding answers about strange happenings in the city… what else is new? Only this time, he's not here to threaten me with prison. He needs my help. Humans are turning up dead all across the city, with puncture wounds in their necks and no blood in their bodies. Even a com...

Humanity finally has a hero who can stand up to Hell. It's my job to stop her. Guess that makes me the villain. Ever since Heaven lost the war, the forces of Hell have treated my city as their playground. One human is finally pushing back. With the power of a saint's relic behind her, she's bringing light to Jarvis's dark streets, one dead demon at a time. But not every demon is one of the bad guys. Some of us just want to live our lives i...

Demons are bad. Politicians are worse. The city's next would-be mayor is in bed with demons-literally. He's got big plans to renew the founder's demonic pacts and turn Jarvis back into the hub of glamor and decadence it used to be… by feeding the city's undesirables to the hungry maw of hell. Politics isn't my game, so where do I come in? Well, demons don't like to leave their wins up to chance. If he can't win the old-fashioned way, he'll...

Sometimes even the good guys have to make a deal with a demon. I'm that demon. When a fallen angel killed God, not all priests lost their faith. Some rolled up their sleeves and got to work. Like the ones behind Seed of Renewal-a charity on a mission to create a better world here on earth, since we can't count on heaven anymore. Whatever they're doing, it's working. Crime is down. Kindness is up. Even someone as cynical as me has to admit ...

When human justice fails, the desperate call me. You know things are bad when a fallen angel is one of the good guys. Only I'm not much more than human myself now. Not since I lost my magic in the war that defeated the big boss in Heaven for good. I stay away from the supernatural these days. I've got enough regular old human wrongs to right without borrowing trouble I no longer have the firepower to handle. Besides, I paid my dues in the ...
