Tommy Tailor è il protagonista di una serie di romanzi fantasy che sono diventati un fenomeno culturale. Su internet e nelle convention, i fan si incontrano per celebrare le sue magiche storie nella speranza che il suo creatore scomparso, Wilson Taylor, rispunti fuori da qualche parte per scrivere un'ultima avventura. Ma c'è uno sviluppo inaspettato della trama: il vero Tom Taylor, il figlio che Wilson ha abbandonato, viene ora venerato in tutto il mondo come una leggenda letteraria incarnata. Quando la sua vita comincia bizzarramente ad assomigliare sempre di più a quella di Tommy, Tom viene catapultato in un strano inferno letterario dove il potere della capacità di raccontare è forte come un incantesimo.

Le storie mai raccolte in volume di Lucifer. Mike Carey e Peter Gross ci raccontano della caduta di Lucifero, del trionfo dei Basano e dell'arrivo di Mazikeen e dell'esercito di Lilim alle porte degli Inferi. Ma quando appare uno dei membri immortali degli Eterni le cose non possono che peggiorare ulteriormente.

Lucifero è riuscito a sconfiggere i tarocchi viventi Basanos, ma le due piume delle sue ali che gli conferiscono il pieno dei suoi poteri giacciono ancora in mano a Dusano-O-No-Mikoto, il dio delle tempeste, figlio di Izanagi e fratello di Amaterasu. Amenadiel dei Troni, angelo delle schiere celesti un tempo suo alleato, cerca allora di sfruttare la situazione: sostenuto da Lord Arux, sfida l'Astro del Mattino in una lotta all'ultimo sangue da tenersi nei campi di Effrul, convinto di avere ormai la vittoria in tasca. Ma molti sono i meccanismi astrali che muovono le vicende terrestri e celestiali, mentre Maziheen, la fedele servitrice del Portatore di Luce, cerca di recuperare le due piume. Nel frattempo, Lucifero ha incontrato il Duca di Gly, un possibile alleato tanto quanto pericoloso nemico. Intanto, sulla Terra si cerca di fare nuova luce sulla morte di Elaine Belloc. Inizia con questo volume la nuova storyline di Lucifero, il personaggio nato sulle pagine di Sandman e creato da Neil Gaiman e Sam Keith. Ali interno, Lucifer #29-35, con la storia completa 'il Dono'.

Cast out of Heaven, thrown down to rule in Hell, Lucifer Morningstar has resigned his post and abandoned his kingdom for the mortal city of Los Angeles. In this final LUCIFER volume, the war in Heaven reaches its universe-shaking conclusion, as the forces of Heaven, Hell, and everyone in between wage a final battle to determine the fate of both Yahweh and Lucifer's Creations - a fate no one, not even the Lightbringer, could foresee. And in the aftermath of the battle, how will Lucifer and his cohorts pick up their lives and tie up loose ends?

Tom Taylor's life was screwed from day one. His father created the Tommy Taylor fantasy series, boy-wizard novels with popularity on par with Harry Potter. The problem is Dad modeled the fictional epic so closely to Tom's real life that fans are constantly comparing him to his counterpart, turning him into the lamest variety of Z-level celebrity. In the final novel, it's even
implied that the fictional Tommy will crossover into the real world, giving delusional fans more excuses to harass Tom. When an enormous scandal reveals that Tom might really be a boy-wizard made flesh, Tom comes into contact with a very mysterious, very deadly group that's secretly kept tabs on him all his life. Now, to protect his own life and discover the truth behind
his origins, Tom will travel the world, eventually finding himself at locations all featured on a very special map -- one kept by the deadly group that charts places throughout world history where fictions have impacted and tangibly shaped reality, those stories ranging from famous literary works to folktales to pop culture. And in the process of figuring out what it all means, Tom will find himself having to figure out a huge conspiracy mystery that spans the entirety of the history of fiction.

The War of Words is over, but the real world and fictional world are both in turmoil, and the damage seems to be spreading. When a rash of mysterious disappearances catches the eye of young detective Didge Patterson, it becomes apparent that the cult known as The Church of Tommy is involved. Can Tommy heal 'The Wound' before the real and fictional worlds crumble?

Quando Wilson, il padre di Tom Taylor, creò la serie fantasy di Tommy Taylor dei romanzi su un ragazzo mago che hanno ottenuto un successo mondiale immediato - i fan hanno inevitabilmente identificato il vero Tom con la sua controparte cartacea, donandogli un genere di notorietà che lui avrebbe preferito non avere. Ma quando viene rivelato come Tom potrebbe effettivamente essere un mago in carne e ossa, egli viene in contatto con una misteriosa cabala che lo ha segretamente tenuto d'occhio per tutta la sua vita. Ora, per proteggere la sua stessa vita e scoprire la verità sulle proprie origini, Tom e i suoi compagni devono viaggiare per il mondo, toccando una serie di località indicate su una mappa particolare - che viene conservata dalla mortale organizzazione - dove la finzione ha avuto un impatto sulla realtà, dalle storie della letteratura classica ai racconti popolari fino alle storie seriali della cultura pop. Durante questa ricerca, Tom deve usare tutte le armi a sua disposizione - ma anche la magia della narrativa può comportare dei rischi... E nei capitoli alterni, la crociata di Tom si scontra con la storia segreta della cabala, come raccontata vividamente nei diari di Wilson Taylor. Quando sarà finita, resterà ben poco di 'non scritto'...

In principio... Ontogenesi. Venire al mondo. L'inizio di una vita. Un unico individuo. E che tu stia parlando di una persona o di una storia, il processo è esattamente lo stesso. Almeno è quello che credeva Wilson Taylor. Prima della sua misteriosa scomparsa e della sua morte prematura, il famoso autore fantasy ha aiutato a portare al mondo due creazioni durature: Tommy Taylor, il giovane mago protagonista dei suoi romanzi di successo... e Tom Taylor, il suo figlio nella realtà. Entrambi sono stati creati per essere degli eroi nella battaglia tra il bene e il male. E ogni eroe ha bisogno della storia delle sue origini... È nato in carne e ossa o è stato portato in vita dalla scrittura? Le risposte si trovano all'alba della Golden Age dei fumetti, quando gli eroi pattugliavano il cielo, e il tradimento era in agguato nell'ombra...
