The Omega Artifact
SPYCRAFT MEETS SPELLCRAFT in the thrilling follow-up to the Canada's #1 crowdfunded novel of all time, The North Valley Grimoire. From Blake Northcott (DC Comics' Catwoman, Heavy Metal Magazine's Synap$e, and the international bestselling Arena Mode trilogy) comes The Omega Artifact, a short story that bridges the gap to the upcoming sequel, THE CELESTIAL KILLSWITCH (2021). Agent Malek's mission to Colombia is supposed to be a simple snatch-and-grab: locate a target, bag them, and lock them in an off-grid black site. Just another day at the office ... if the office you happen to work at is a clandestine division of the CIA dedicated to tracking and subduing magickal threats. But when Malek is paired with a rival agent who suspects he's a double agent, he discovers there's more than one threat to deal with. THE STORY SO FAR In the remote town of Gravenhurst, Arizona, a server farm suffered a meltdown. At the time no one knew who or what had caused the disaster, but it tore a hole in the fabric of reality. A mysterious energy source began leaking through the rift: magick. Left unchecked, it could fall into the wrong hands. The CIA formed a black-ops team to eliminate mystical threats both domestic and abroad. Thanks to FATHER Division, few are aware magick exists, but as the rift expands and spells continue to spread, a catastrophic event is imminent. The Agency claims their endgame is to mend the tear, shutting magick off at the source, though some—including Agent Malek—believe their true motives are far more nefarious: politicians at the highest level want the rift to remain open so they can weaponize magick, launching the next industrial complex. Acting as a double agent, Malek continues to work his way up the chain of command until he can close the rift and expose FATHER Division for what it really is. Then he’ll be free of his contract … and his hex will be lifted.
