In this thrilling new Wild Cards adventure, John Fortune's superhuman powers put him on a collision course with enemies he never knew he had.
Edited by bestselling author George R. R. Martin, Death Draws Five follows John Fortune, the son of two of the most powerful and popular Aces the world has ever seen. John has finally turned his card and become an Ace, but his new abilities lead to unexpected conflicts and dangers. Is he a new messiah, the Anti-Christ, or just a kid in over his head?
Mr. Nobody wants to do his job. The Midnight Angel serves her Lord. Billy Ray craves action. John Nighthawk aims to uncover the secret behind his mysterious power. Fortunato must rescue his son from a cryptic Vatican office. Amidst this, John Fortune simply hopes to catch Siegfried and Ralph's famous Vegas review. However, all roads lead to Leo Barnett's Peaceable Kingdom, where the line between the Apocalypse and Peace on Earth is razor-thin, and Death himself awaits the final, fateful turn of the card.
