Prophecy of darkness - Stella Howard

Tie-in to the international TV cult sensation starring Lucy Lawless.

Xena, once in love with conquest and destruction, now fights for the side of good. Though constantly haunted by her wicked past, Xena courageously battles mortals, gods, demigods and monsters, and heroically protects the downtrodden from evil.

In Prophecy of Darkness: travelling the countryside, Xena and Gabrielle encounter a twelve-year-old seer with a startling prophecy. She warns them about a mage whose well-intentioned spell will lead to disaster. The spell will unleash Cerberus, the fearsome guardian of Hades' gates. The mage seeks relief for those who suffer in the underworld. But his spell will set free many evil-doers - as well as Cerberus himself - to terrorize the earth.

Xena and Gabrielle must help the seer to break the spell - before all Hades breaks loose. But more danger awaits, because, according to the prophecy, one of them will not return.
