For their part, through a determination of will and tenacity driven by vengence, the McEwans desire the realization of immortality- if for nothing else then to bear witness to the Hastings demise.Surviving centuries of conflict, we are brought to present day, across the ocean, to Austin Texas where the beckoning of the wolf brings a new, though very different threat to the Dire...The coming of the scribe, the prophecy fulfilled, and the birth of a new line immortalizing the McEwans and setting the stage for a war of the immortals.
