CAMAZOTZ: THE DEATH BAT

He is not a myth. He is the gate.

Marek and Tomas Varga carry the scars of the old country into New York, trying to build a life from work, family, and the butcher shop they call their own.

Then violence reaches them again.

Loss drives Marek toward an ancient power connected to Xibalba, the underworld, and a threshold hidden beneath the ordinary city. What begins as grief and vengeance becomes transformation.

Marek becomes Camazotz, the Death Bat.

But the power does not make him a god. It gives him a burden. He must decide whether the creature inside him exists to punish, to dominate, or to guard the gate between worlds.

The first Clear Field Chronicle begins the alliance of Marek, Tomas, and Detective Michael Quinn, and establishes the dimensional mythology that continues in CAMAZOTZ: THE FROZEN GATE.
